Vision plays a key role in the developing human brain. 👀🧠 New nature study finds that a loss of sight led to major reorganization of brain cell types within the visual regions and across half of cortex. alleninstitute.org/news/how-visio…

To everyone who has been shocked and depressed by the staggering 40% cut to the BRAIN Initiative: we have a voice! Outside Witness Testimony (aka written testimony) for the FY 2025 appropriations cycle is ongoing. Deadline for the House side is Friday May 3 and the Senate side

Looking forward to welcoming renowned neurologist and neuroscientist @luscherc to the Allen Institute! If you are in the Seattle area, I hope you will join me on July 31, 5pm for what will be an illuminating presentation on the neuroscience of fentanyl addiction.

The BRAIN Initiative has driven unprecedented progress in neuroscience, but a 40% funding cut threatens this momentum. Restoring funding would help solve more mysteries of the brain and developing life-changing treatments. #studyBRAIN nature.com/articles/s4159…

Excited to share our single-cell study on aging mouse brain published in Nature today! We found an aging hotspot in specific hypothalamic cell types involved in energy homeostasis, which show both decreased neuronal function and increased immune responses. doi.org/10.1038/s41586…

We can't stop aging, but can we slow it down? 🎧 Torah Kachur discusses our recently published aging mouse brain research examining cell types & brain regions involved with aging with Hongkui Zeng on CBC Radio Active. This research could help scientists target effects of aging.

Scientists at Allen Institute for Brain Science led the efforts in generating the largest electron microscopy volume of the brain ever and reconstructing the beautifully intricate wiring diagram of the mouse visual cortex. Congratulations to team for this spectacular achievement!
