An academic genealogy platform that collects information about graduate students and posdoctoral research connections. The Neuroscience Academic Family Tree is a free, volunteer-run website designed to help you track your academic genealogy. Our goal is to collect information about the graduate student and postdoctoral connections between most researchers in the field. :How do I navigate the tree? :There are several ways to wander around Neurotree. The basics are summed up in the commands at the top of each page: :* Tree - Jump to a random node on the tree :* Search - Search for a specific person or people at a specific institution :* Recent additions - List the most recent additions :* Distance - Trace the connection between two people in the tree :* Add person - Add a new person to the tree (and be a good citizen!). You must sign up for an account to make additions. :* Analysis - Learn more amazing facts about neurogenealogy! ... and possibly something about the field of neuroscience.

An online game for mapping neuronal connections in the retina. The site provides microscopic retinal images and uses crowdsourcing to make sense of the images. EyeWire is where the general public can help make discoveries about the neural structure of the retina. The challenge is to map the neural connections of the retina by analyzing images that were acquired using serial electron microscopy at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research in Heidelberg, Germany. A retinal volume of size 350��300��60 micrometer cubed was imaged, amounting to about one terabyte of data. Retinal Connectome * Game 1: Reconstructing Neurons * Game 2: Identifying Synapses Eyewire incorporates computational technologies developed by the laboratory of Prof. Sebastian Seung at MIT.
