The study, published today in @NatureNeuro, involved over 3.4 million cells from 84 brains. Donors ranged from those with advanced Alzheimer’s dementia to unimpaired subjects without evidence of AD.

We've begun rolling out anatomical annotations to the Allen Brain Cell Atlas!
The first data set to support these annotations is the MERFISH Spatial Transcriptomics Dataset of a Single Adult Mouse Brain - registered to CCFv3. 🔗 knowledge.brain-map.org/abca…

Whole, healthy human brain data is now on the ABC Atlas!
Dataset incl. 3 million+ cells sampled from dissections from adult donors. Samples underwent snRNA sequencing and were clustered and categorized by neurotransmitter, region, and more.

On this day in 2014, we published the Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas, the first comprehensive, large-scale data set on how the brain of a mammal is wired. #Allen20

the only people I’ve seen dismissing this insightful article are ones who don’t seem to understand compression very well
the only surprise(?) is that it took a skilled writer and thinker, instead of one of us researchers, to make the case crystal clear

Neurophysiology data is so expensive and valuable. Let’s not waste it! Let's share it and reuse it!

We are leading a new global collaboration to map the ~200 billion cells in the human brain by their type and function. @Inside_PM reports.

Today we published a manuscript with roots that go back to my first days @AllenInstitute. This project afforded me the privilege of working with many talented and devoted scientists, especially @docseeman @lukecampagnola @HongkuiZeng. Thank you one and all for the opportunity.
