+# Project Organization
+
+## Components
+- **Slack Channel**  
+  Each project must have a dedicated Slack channel, created using a standardized project template. This channel should include:
+  - **Project Overview:** A summary listing team members, their roles, and links to all key resources (e.g., Google Docs, GitHub repositories, project website).
+  - **Task Manager:** A dedicated space for tracking project tasks and deadlines.
+
+- **GitHub Repositories**  
+  Every distinct project component should be housed in its own GitHub repository. This modular structure promotes clarity and simplifies collaboration.
+
+## Naming Conventions
+- **Slack Channel:**  
+  Adopt the format `project-<name>`, where `<name>` is entirely in lowercase and may include subcomponents separated by hyphens.  
+  *Example:* `project-mario-curiosity`.
+
+- **GitHub Repositories:**  
+  Use the format `<project_name>.<component_name>`, with underscores permitted in both parts.  
+  *Example:* `mario_curiosity.scene_agents`.  
+  *Note:* Although the Slack channel uses hyphens, the GitHub naming convention favors underscores for readability and consistency.
+
+- **Special Cases – Github repositories for Reusable Datasets:**  
+  For datasets intended for community sharing (e.g., datasets collected by CNeuroMod):
+  - The `<project_name>` should correspond to the dataset’s name.
+  - The `<component_name>` should describe a well-documented processing pipeline designed for reuse.
+
+  Conversely, datasets generated specifically for a single project—without broader community reuse—should be managed as standard project components under the primary `<project_name>`.
