This BRAIN Initiative grant supports Specialized Projects to develop scalable technologies for comprehensive brain connectivity atlases. The focus is human, non-human primate (NHP), and mouse, with other species allowed if justified. This grant seeks innovative approaches for data collection, analysis, and dissemination. The aim is faster, more cost-effective generation and interpretation of brain-wide wiring diagrams. Projects should offer distinct capabilities, optimizing current technologies or exploring new, high-risk methods. Awarded projects will integrate into the BRAIN CONNECTS Network, contributing to a coordinated effort to develop complete brain wiring diagrams across multiple scales.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) supports Specialized Projects to develop current or emerging technologies to generate comprehensive atlases of brain connectivity, with an emphasis on human, non-human primate (NHP), and mouse. Projects validating approaches using other species are also permitted if well justified. Applications may address any aspects of the data collection, analysis, and dissemination pipelines, to enable faster and more cost-effective generation and interpretation of brain-wide wiring diagrams. Projects will offer distinct capabilities and competencies aimed at developing and optimizing current technologies or entirely new and potentially risky approaches. They will be integrated into the BRAIN CONNECTS Network, consisting of other Specialized Projects from this FOA, and Comprehensive Centers from its companion announcements, as a coordinated effort aimed at developing wiring diagrams that can span entire brains across multiple scales. |
