CxSystem2

CxSystem2 is a simulation framework for cortical networks, which operates on personal computers. It is implemented in Python on top of the popular Brian2 simulator, and runs on Linux, Windows and MacOS. There is also a web-based version available via the Human Brain Project Brain Simulation Platform (BSP).

CxSystem2 embraces the main goal of Brian – minimizing development time – by providing the user with a simplified interface. While many simple models can be written in pure Brian code, more complex models can get hard to manage due to the large number of biological details. We currently provide two interfaces for constructing networks: a browser-based interface (locally or via the BSP), and a file-based interface (json or csv). Before incorporating neuron models into a network, the user can explore their behavior using the Neurodynlib submodule. Spike output and 3D structure of network simulations can be visualized using ViSimpl, a visualization tool developed by the GMRV Lab.

siibra-explorer

siibra-explorer is built around an interactive 3D view of the brain displaying a unique selection of detailed templates and parcellation maps for the human, macaque, rat or mouse brain, including BigBrain as a microscopic resolution human brain model at its full resolution of 20 micrometres.

Collaboratory

The EBRAINS Collaboratory offers researchers and developers a secure environment to work with others. You control the level of collaboration by sharing your projects with specific users, teams or all of the Internet. Many researchers are sharing their work already; several services, tools, datasets and other resources are publicly available, and many more are available for registered users.

MeshView

MeshView is a web application for real-time 3D display of surface mesh data representing structural parcellations from volumetric atlases, such as the Waxholm Space Atlas of the Sprague Dawley Rat Brain. MeshView is available as an EBRAINS community app, accessible via a collab (further info: https://wiki.ebrains.eu/bin/view/Collabs/image-registration-and-analysis-demo/) Key features: orbiting view with toggleable opaque/transparent/hidden parcellation meshes rendering user defined cut surface as if meshes were solid objects rendering point-clouds (simple type-in, or loaded from a JSON format) coordinate system is compatible with QuickNII (https://www.nitrc.org/projects/quicknii)
