The EBRAINS research infrastructure, stemming from the Human Brain Project, serves as a browser-first portal for neuroscientists to access and interact with a vast ecosystem of brain data, computational models, and simulation tools. It facilitates the discovery, exploration, and utilization of multi-modal brain atlases, experimental datasets, and high-performance computing resources directly through a web interface, enabling advanced neuroscientific research and collaborative knowledge sharing.
