This lesson introduces concepts and practices surrounding reference atlases for the mouse and rat brains. Additionally, this lesson provides discussion around examples of data systems employed to organize neuroscience data collections in the context of reference atlases as well as analytical workflows applied to the data.

This talk covers EBRAINS, an open research infrastructure that gathers data, tools and computing facilities for brain-related research, built with interoperability at the core.

This lesson provides an introduction to the European open research infrastructure EBRAINS and its digital brain atlas resources.

This lecture gives an introduction to the types of glial cells, homeostasis (influence of cerebral blood flow and influence on neurons), insulation and protection of axons (myelin sheath; nodes of Ranvier), microglia and reactions of the CNS to injury.
