User talk: Bringing Marmoset to EBRAINS
The Marmoset@EBRAINS project focused on expanding the EBRAINS research infrastructure by incorporating a digital atlas of the common marmoset brain. This effort is driven by the marmoset's growing importance as a primate model for bridging the translational gap between human and rodent studies in neuroscience. At the same time, the project serves as a real-world test of the platform's core principles: flexibility, interoperability, and extensibility.
Who You’ll Be Hearing From
This session brings together expert voices from across the EBRAINS community and beyond. Discover the people sharing their insights, research, and perspectives on the topic.
Dr. hab. Piotr Majka is an assistant professor at the Laboratory of Neuroinformatics at the Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology in Warsaw. His research investigates how the intricate microscopic structure of the brain's connectivity network translates into perception, behavior, and specific actions by integrating computational neuroanatomy, multiscale data analysis, high-throughput imaging, classical neuroanatomy, and neurophysiology. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. hab. Majka has developed multimodal 3D brain atlases, advanced multimodal image registration techniques, and neuroinformatics platforms. His interdisciplinary work has resulted in the most comprehensive cortico-cortical connectome of any non-human primate brain to date. These contributions earned him recognition from the Polish Prime Minister for outstanding scientific achievements in 2024 and 2025 Edward Flatau Award for his significant contributions to neuroanatomy.
