Dear colleagues, Please join us for an online tutorial at the Allen Institute. Tools for modeling: The Brain Modeling Toolkit and SONATA data format January 28, 2021 | 10:00-11:00am PT Please register here: https://alleninstitute.org/what-we-do/brain-science/events-training/open-for... The Brain Modeling Toolkit is a Python-based open software package for building, simulating, and analyzing large-scale neural network models. It supports the building and simulation of models at various scales. Dai et al., PLOS Comp. Bio., 2020a<https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008386> The Brain Modeling Toolkit is linked to SONATA, a standardized data format for storing networks and simulations. Dai et al., PLOS Comp. Bio., 2020b<https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1007696> These are the software tools we used to build, simulate, and share our multi-scale models of mouse V1, which are freely available to the community. Billeh et al., Neuron, 2020<https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2020.01.040> https://portal.brain-map.org/explore/models We are looking forward to seeing you there.
