It was an honor to host John Ngai and Crystal Lantz at the Allen Institute to discuss recent advancements from the BRAIN CONNECTS program, supported by the NIH.
The #studyBRAIN Initiative has been truly transformative in advancing our understanding of the brain.
The Cell Type Knowledge Explorer allows anyone to explore the diversity and complexity of the mouse, human, and non-human primate brain.

Congrats to the global BICAN consortium for releasing the most detailed developmental maps of the mammalian brain to date. This achievement, supported by the NIH's #studyBRAIN Initiative, provides powerful tools for understanding brain development. #ScienceMatters

Inhibitory neurons labeled with markers for SCGN and PAX6.
New in @nature.com, @labnowakowski.bsky.social uses barcoded lineage tracing to reveal how different cell types in the human brain form, identifying a transition during development when some progenitors shift from making excitatory to inhibitory neurons. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #studyBRAIN ๐ง ๐ฆ
These atlases detail critical periods in brain development and are open to everyone to lower the barriers to breakthroughs in understanding and treating brain diseases.

It was a pleasure to host our last BRAIN U19 site visit. Thank you Randy Buckner @toddc.bsky.social and NIH BRAIN program for constructive criticism and encouragement!
It's a travesty that funding for large Team Science projects is going away. We are so much better together!
