The BRAIN Initiative Cell Atlas Network (BICAN) is offering this grant to establish Comprehensive Centers that will create detailed, high-resolution brain cell atlases for human and non-human primates, with an emphasis on human. This initiative aims to characterize all brain cell types—neurons, glia, and other non-neuronal cells—using scalable technology platforms and streamlined sampling. This grant is for the purpose of building foundational reference brain cell atlases to be widely used by the research community. These atlases will provide a critical molecular and anatomical framework for studying brain function and disorders.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) intends to support a group of large-scale Comprehensive Centers that will adopt scalable technology platforms and streamlined sampling strategies and assay cascade to create comprehensive and highly granular brain cell atlases of human and non-human primates with an emphasis on human. The Centers are expected to characterize all brain cell types (neurons, glia, and other non-neuronal cells) at high-resolution. The overarching goal of the BICAN is to build reference brain cell atlases that will be widely used throughout the research community, providing a molecular and anatomical foundational framework for the study of brain function and disorders. |
