# Gwilliams et al. 2023 — Introducing MEG-MASC: a high-quality magneto-encephalography dataset for evaluating natural speech processing
**Dataset ID:** `nm000229`
_Gwilliams2023_
**Canonical aliases:** `MASC_MEG` · `MEG_MASC`
> **At a glance:** EEG · 29 subjects · 1360 recordings · CC0
## Load this dataset
This repo is a **pointer**. The raw EEG data lives at its canonical source
(OpenNeuro / NEMAR); [EEGDash](https://github.com/eegdash/EEGDash) streams it
on demand and returns a PyTorch / braindecode dataset.
```python
# pip install eegdash
from eegdash import EEGDashDataset
ds = EEGDashDataset(dataset="nm000229", cache_dir="./cache")
print(len(ds), "recordings")
```
You can also load it by canonical alias — these are registered classes in `eegdash.dataset`:
```python
from eegdash.dataset import MASC_MEG
ds = MASC_MEG(cache_dir="./cache")
```
If the dataset has been mirrored to the HF Hub in braindecode's Zarr layout,
you can also pull it directly:
```python
from braindecode.datasets import BaseConcatDataset
ds = BaseConcatDataset.pull_from_hub("EEGDash/nm000229")
```
