The BigBrain Community

The BigBrain Project has a thriving community of users and developers. We hold biennial conferences to meet (old and new) members, share and probe new ideas, and provide updates about the various activities around the data. Visit our website -- see who we are, learn what we do -- share your BigBrain data-related stories and work (publications, results, derived data, tools) - join our community to start a conversation, or to keep one going.
