Neuroscience Databases Listing

Neuroscience specific databases.

  • Allen Brain Atlas
    The Allen Brain Atlas resources are a growing collection of online public resources integrating extensive gene expression and neuroanatomical data, complete with a novel suite of search and viewing tools. This portal gives you access to each of these resources by clicking on the button for a particular project or by clicking the project from the banner tab or drop-down menu.
  • BAMS Best Bet
    The Brain Architecture Management System - an online resource for information about neural circuitry. This rapidly expanding set of inference engines currently has 5 interrelated modules: Brain Parts (gray matter regions, major fiber tracts, and ventricles), Cell Types, Molecules, Connections (between regions and cell types), and Relations (between parts identified different neuroanatomical atlases).
  • Brain Architecture Project
    The Brain Architecture Project is a collaborative effort aimed at creating an integrated resource containing knowledge about nervous system architecture in multiple species, with a focus on mouse and human.
  • BrainSpan - Atlas of the Developing Human Brain
    The BrainSpan atlas includes the following:
    Developmental Transcriptome: RNA sequencing and exon microarray data profiling up to sixteen cortical and subcortical structures across the full course of human brain development.
    Prenatal LMD Microarray: High-resolution neuroanatomical transcriptional profiles of ~300 distinct structures spanning the entire brain for four midgestional prenatal specimens.
    ISH: High-resolution in situ hybridization image data covering selected genes and brain regions in developing and adult human brain.
    Reference Atlas: Full color, high-resolution anatomic reference atlases of prenatal and adult human brain.
  • CoCoMac
    Macaque macro connectivity at your fingertips
  • Human Brain Project
    The Human Brain Project (HBP) is a European Commission Future and Emerging Technologies Flagship. The HBP aims to put in place a cutting-edge, ICT-based scientific research infrastructure that will allow scientific and industrial researchers to advance our knowledge in the fields of neuroscience, computing and brain-related medicine. The Project promotes collaboration across the globe, and is committed to driving forward European industry.
  • Human Connectome Project
    Navigate the brain in a way that was never before possible; fly through major brain pathways, compare essential circuits, zoom into a region to explore the cells that comprise it, and the functions that depend on it.
    The Human Connectome Project (HCP) is a project to construct a map of the complete structural and functional neural connections in vivo within and across individuals. The HCP represents the first large-scale attempt to collect and share data of a scope and detail sufficient to begin the process of addressing deeply fundamental questions about human connectional anatomy and variation.
  • SumsDB
    SumsDB (the Surface Management System DataBase) provides access to a growing body of neuroimaging and related data. WebCaret software provides online data visualization for datasets in SumsDB.
