siibra-explorer
siibra-explorer is a browser-based 3D viewer for exploring brain atlases that cover different spatial resolutions and modalities.
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.
By selecting brain regions or zooming into user-defined regions of interest, users can find and access data features from different modalities which have been linked to the respective locations in the brain, including structural and functional connectivity, histological features such as cell and neurotransmitter densities, 2D and 3D images, and gene expressions. This way siibra-explorer allows to explore and study brain organization in many different facets.
siibra stands for "software interfaces for interacting with brain atlases" and includes a suite of tools of which siibra-explorer is the most immediate and intuitive entry point. The python library siibra-python provides all the functionality of the explorer and more for developing computational workflows, while the http interface siibra-api can be used for application development.
siibra-explorer has been developed in the frame of the Human Brain Project. The main installation is hosted as a publicly accessible service at https://atlases.ebrains.eu/viewer
