In a new interview, we talk to EBRAINS Chief Science Officer Viktor Jirsa about his impressions from the EBRAINS Roadmap Symposium, and how the discussions will inform the writing of the EBRAINS Roadmap.

Researchers developed tailored computational mean-field brain models to capture how different cerebellar regions generate and shape neural activity. Integrated into The Virtual Brain platform using EBRAINS infrastructure, this work enables biologically grounded, multi-scale brain simulations for clinical applications.

A new study supported by EBRAINS 2.0 and the Virtual Brain Twin Project has presented a biologically grounded computer model of the cerebellar cortex – the part of the brain involved in coordinating movement and supporting learning – that simulates brain activity with remarkable realism.

A team of researchers from the University of Pavia has introduced a tool that automatically converts detailed spiking neural network models into simpler “mean field model” (MFM) equations – mathematical descriptions that capture the dynamics of populations of neurons.

EBRAINS was present at the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) Congress 2026 in Geneva, Switzerland with a booth.

The Book of Abstracts for the 1st EBRAINS Student Conference on Interdisciplinary Brain Research has officially been published and is now available to the public through Frontiers Neuroscience.
