Abstract:
Neuronal morphology sits at the heart of understanding
how neurons connect, communicate, and compute —
yet working with reconstructed morphology data
remains surprisingly cumbersome. From exploration and visualization to quality control, standardization, and advanced analysis, researchers routinely face fragmented workflows and scattered tooling.
In this webinar, we introduce the morphology-related functionalities of the Open Brain Institute platform and show how they bring these workflows together in one integrated environment.
Through hands-on use cases, we will demonstrate how the platform supports efficient dataset exploration, interactive visualization and inspection of reconstructions, collaborative data sharing, automated detection and correction
of reconstruction artifacts, and morphometric and topological analyses —
including how topological approaches can reveal meaningful morphological differences across species.
Whether you are reconstructing neurons, building biologically accurate cell models, or simply trying to make sense of a large morphology dataset, this webinar will show you a more accessible and scalable way to do it. Open
to researchers across all areas of neuroscience.
We hope you will join us.
Best Wishes,
