The Human Brain Project (HBP) is pleased to announce the launch of its new podcast which features in-depth conversations with researchers from the HBP.

From 18-20 January 2023, the 7th HBP Student Conference on Interdisciplinary Brain Research provided an inspiring open forum for collaboration among early-career researchers working in brain and brain-related research.

The current edition of Science Translational Medicine highlights virtual models of patients’ brains as a new tool in brain medicine.

The Human Brain Project (HBP) is delighted to announce that registration for the HBP Summit 2023 is open. The event will take place at the Palais du Pharo in Marseille, France, from March 28-31, 2023.

In dealing with the world’s dynamic, complex, ever-changing nature, the complexity of the brain does not fall short of the complexity of the world. Brain complexity can be found across all its levels, from its network function down to the level of single brain cells (and beyond).

The NEST Facility Hub, operated by the Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Germany, represents an organizational point of contact that can be approached both from the NEST user and developer side, as well as from the infrastructure side.

The latest edition of the International School of Brain Cells & Circuits “Camillo Golgi”, organised by scientists at the Human Brain Project, concluded on Saturday 3 November. The school was hosted at the Ettore Majorana Foundation and Centre for Scientific Culture in the small Sicilian town of Erice, where high profile scientific summits have been taking place since 1963 in four reformed monasteries across the town. This year marks the 7th edition of the school, which featured more than 80 participants and dozens of talks, lessons, poster sessions and for the first time workshops and hands-on activities.

Researchers from the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM) supported by the Human Brain Project (HBP) were able for the first time to identify the origin, intranuclear distribution and size of all types of axon terminals present in a cognitive nucleus of the thalamus.

Human Brain Project researchers from University of Oslo have reviewed the current state of atlas-based data integration for mapping the connections and architecture of the rodent brain. These interactive, 3-dimensional atlases provide a standardized representation of anatomical location and connectivity between brain regions. When publicly available and enriched with metadata and analysis tools, these resources form the basis for a shared research language accessible to the whole scientific community.
