The BRAIN Initiative Alliance (BIA) website now offers a section for Toolmakers’ Resources, including the first issue of a new Toolmakers Newsletter, which features information about BRAIN Initiative tools, tech, and theories. Talk to BRAIN Initiative Toolmakers at the BIA Social today!
As part of the BRAIN Initiative Alliance (BIA), we are proud to present two new additions to the BIA website! The Resources section now includes Toolmakers’ Resources, featuring products of BRAIN Initiative researchers. With open access resources such as the Human Neocortical Neurosolver and cytoNet, we hope that everyone finds something useful on the new page. The list of resources will continue to grow and opportunities to add your own BRAIN Initiative tool will be coming soon!
In conjunction with the launch of the new Toolmakers’ Resources webpage, we are happy to announce the inaugural issue of the BRAIN Initiative Toolmakers Newsletter(7.51MB). The newsletters spotlight different BRAIN Initiative Investigators with tools, technologies, and/ or theories ready for distribution to the research community to advance the field of neurotechnology. The first issue features Stephanie Jones, Philip Troyk, Talmo Pereira (a joint student in the labs of Mala Murthy and Joshua Shaevitz), Daniel Aharoni and Peyman Golshani. For instance, did you know that Ph.D. candidate Talmo Periera pioneered a new animal tracking software program called SLEAP. Check out the current and future newsletters for topics like this and more!
Have a question about how to use one of the tools on the website? Interested in collaborating with one of the toolmakers?
Register to attend the BRAIN Initiative Alliance Talk to Toolmakers Social happening today, Tuesday, January 12 from 3:30 – 4:30pm (EST). This free event will offer a forum for BRAIN Initiative toolmakers to chat about the cutting-edge tools they’ve created – many of which are listed in the new Resources section – including new electrophysiology probes, optical imaging devices, software, and others. There will be three breakout sessions where attendees can meet toolmakers, ask questions, and identify potential opportunities to collaborate with someone new. For a list of toolmakers and tools, please view the event webpage.
