Resource:Connectome Wiki

Name: Resource:Connectome Wiki
Description: Connectome Wiki is a knowledge base for macro- and mesoscale brain region and brain structural connectivity information across species. Employing modern semantic wiki technology, it serves as collaborative platform as well.

What can I get?

  • Brain Regions: Plenty of information, including links to relevant literature and much more.
  • Brain Connections: Well established neuronal connections based mainly on neuronal tracer studies from the literature.
  • Abbreviations: Look up abbreviations and corresponding English and Latin names
  • Partition Schemes: Foundational and more partitions with their corresponding delineation criteria and protocols.
  • Species: Information about different species is available, using their binomial name as identifier.
  • External: Enhance the ConnectomeViewer with Volume-To-Ontology mappings.
  • Data Source: You can download the raw data in RDF or JSON.

How can I contribute? If your research is in particular brain regions, or model organisms not yet registered, feel free to act as domain expert and add your knowledge. If you do any tracer studies, add findings with appropriate published papers. Incrementally building a mesoscale skeleton wiring diagram. Complete anything that is missing. See also PapersToAdd. Register your own partition scheme and link it semantically against known schemes. Adding brain region pages for your particular research organisms. Use ConnectomeWiki as knowledge backend for your application concerned with gross neuroanatomy.

The goals of this wiki are:

  • A collaborative platform to collect, collate, manage and disseminate mesoscale nervous system region and connectivity information across various species
  • Authority for Brain Region Abbreviations
  • Representation of Brain Region Homologies
  • Interrelation of Brain Partition Schemes
  • Information source for the ConnectomeViewer application
