EBRAINS welcomes Stockholm University as new associate member
EBRAINS is pleased to announce that Stockholm University (SU) – one of Europe's leading centres for higher education and research – has joined the EBRAINS AISBL as an associate member.
The membership went into effect on 1 January 2023. It will give SU the opportunity to co-design future iterations of EBRAINS’ cutting-edge tools and services. These state-of-the-art capabilities – which cover data sharing, atlasing, modelling, simulation, high-performance computing, and neurorobotics – aim to help European researchers to address major challenges in brain health, benefiting from insights into data science, brain organization, and artificial intelligence gathered from the EU Flagship Human Brain Project.
Stockholm University contributes to the development of a sustainable democratic society through knowledge, enlightenment and the pursuit of truth.
“At Stockholm University (SU) research on the brain and its relation to behavior, including both basic cellular and molecular research and research using different brain imaging technologies, is currently in a very intense developmental phase. The membership in EBRAINS will further foster this development by giving SU an important platform for collaboration and access to cutting-edge, state of the art, services and tools.”
Department of Psychology, Stockholm University
"I am delighted to welcome Stockholm University among EBRAINS’ members. The University brings in its unique expertise in neurochemistry and molecular neurobiology. It has an impressive record of achievement in the study of disorders of the nervous system. I look forward to how we will co-shape the future of the EBRAINS Research Infrastructure together."
