BIDS genetics example has no genetics data? #308

Closed maxpietsch closed 2 years ago

maxpietsch commented 2 years ago

I don't do genetics so this could very well be a misunderstanding but it seems to me that the genetics example in https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-examples/tree/master/genetics_ukbb contains MRI images but no genetics data? A reference to it was added here.

of course it has no genetic data - as per https://bids-specification.readthedocs.io/en/stable/04-modality-specific-files/08-genetic-descriptor.html it is a descriptor 'A genetic descriptor links a BIDS dataset to associated genetic data, potentially in a separate repository, with details of where to find the genetic data and the type of data available.'

https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-examples/blob/master/genetics_ukbb/dataset_description.json and https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-examples/blob/master/genetics_ukbb/genetic_info.json are what the extension describes

Thank you for the clarification!
