AutoAlign Rat: Spatially anchoring rat brain histology to the Waxholm rat brain atlas using deep neural networks. .
Vis sammendrag
The rat offers many benefits over the mouse for experimental neuroscience, though the popularity of the mouse has surged in recent years due to an ever-growing genetic toolbox. This toolbox is now being expanded to rats and will surely lead to an explosion in rat brain data. To prepare for this we must build tools to spatially anchor rat brain data into a common reference space, enabling comparison and meta-analysis of anchored data. To this end we have created AutoAlign, a deep learning toolbox which spatially anchors rat brain histology to the Waxholm Space atlas of the rat brain (RRID: SCR_017124). AutoAlign can anchor rat brain histology cut coronally, sagitally, and horizontally, here we compare the accuracy of the algorithm to humans across each of these planes. While anchoring a whole-brain dataset would take an anatomist many hours, AutoAlign achieves this in seconds. AutoAlign is compatible with the QUINT workflow, including QuickNII (RRID: SCR_016854), allowing predictions to be modified by users, and VisuAlign (RRID: SCR_017978) enabling the atlas to be warped and deformed to anchored sections. AutoAlign Rat is freely available as both a Python package and web application.

DeepSlice Rat: A Deep Neural Network for automatic registration of rat brain images to the Waxholm Space atlas of the rat brain.
Vis sammendrag
The rat is widely used in experimental neuroscience and with the increasing availability of many genetic tools in rat, its popularity in neuroscientific research is likely to increase. In order to properly leverage the magnitude of rat data that the neuroscientific community generates, brain derived data must be mapped to a common spatial reference space. To this end, the Waxholm Space atlas of the rat brain (RRID:SCR_017124) has been created. While there exist tools to register rat brain data to the Waxholm Space, including the QuickNII (RRID:SCR_016854) and VisuAlign (RRID:SCR_017978) tools provided by the EBRAINS research infrastructure (https://ebrains.eu/services/atlases), these tools are relatively demanding of time and expertise, often requiring hours per whole brain. If we are to comprehensively map the massive amount of brain data currently being generated, we will require automated methods capable of registering data to a common reference space. Here we present DeepSlice Rat, a deep neural network for the automated registration of rat brain images to the Waxholm Space atlas of the rat brain. We show that DeepSlice Rat is equal in performance to an expert neuroanatomist whilst being thousands of times faster. DeepSlice Rat can be used in combination with QuickNII for verification of the registration, and VisuAlign for non-linear adjustments, creating an AI assisted workflow that will greatly enhance productivity. DeepSlice Rat will be freely available on EBRAINS (alongside a mouse implementation) as both a Python package and web-application.

EBRAINS tools for rodent brain atlasing.
Vis sammendrag
Research in small animals depends on comparisons of cellular and molecular measures in large groups, requiring efficient and reproducible methods for registration of data to brain atlases followed by quantitative analysis. While numerous methodologies and increasing amounts of data are available, they are difficult to combine into coherent and reproducible workflows suitable for large-scale analyses. The EBRAINS research infrastructure enables neuroscientists to conduct their mouse and rat brain data analyses in an open, robust and user-friendly environment. It provides tools and workflows for viewing images; automatic and user guided registration of brain section image data to an atlas; feature extraction with machine learning, whole brain distribution analysis, and metadata management according to the FAIR principles. We present examples of typical use cases, illustrating how the available suite of tools can be used and the results obtained, with an emphasis on the reproducibility of the methods applied and the sharing of the data and metadata. The tools are part of the EBRAINS Atlases services (https://ebrains.eu/services/atlases) and offer one comprehensive solutions for organizing, analyzing and sharing brain research data. These and other EBRAINS research infrastructure tools and workflows are developed in close interaction with users in the neuroscience community. Funded from EU Horizon 2020, Specific Grant Agreement No. 945539 (Human Brain Project SGA3).

Quint workflow for brain-wide quantification of rodent models: new functionality for high-throughput studies.
Vis sammendrag
Sectioned brain tissue of rodent models is used to explore the cellular and molecular composition of the brain in health and disease. The QUINT workflow was developed to support standardized atlas-based analysis of sectioned tissue without the need for coding ability. It is shared on the EBRAINS Atlas Services as a suite of open-source tools that can be flexibly combined to meet the needs of diverse projects (ebrains.eu). This includes tools for atlas-registration, feature extraction and quantification in regions defined by a reference atlas of the brain.
New functionality has been added to the QUINT workflow to meet the needs of a novel Alzheimer’s disease project involving a large population of genetically diverse mice, the AD-BDX panel (Neuner et al, Neuron 2019, PMID: 30595332). This includes QCAlign: a tool for assessing the quality of the section images, as well as the quality of the atlas-registration to the sections as performed with the registration tools. By supporting systematic assessment of the material, QCAlign allows the removal of damaged sections, and the post-processing of results according to strict criteria that are transparent and reproducible. As a proof-of-concept, the QCAlign tool was applied to data from the Alzheimer’s project to detect and remove sections with more than 30% damage. It was also used to assess the quality of the atlas-registration before and after application of nonlinear refinements to the registration. To summarize, QCAlign tackles challenges posed by high-throughput studies and expands the scope of the QUINT workflow for comprehensive analysis.

openMINDS - flexible metadata models for neuroscience.
Vis sammendrag
Enhancing transparency and findability of research data is an emerging theme across scientific disciplines. More and more journals and funders, such as the Research Council of Norway, require the sharing of data in accordance with the FAIR guiding principles (Wilkinson et al., Scientific Data 3:160018, 2016), but few publicly accessible databases achieve this requirement. Their suitability is determined by attributes and constraints of the underlying metadata model. In neuroscience, the heterogeneity of data is particularly challenging. The multimodal nature of the research data as well as the wide range in spatial and temporal scales need to be adequately captured. Therefore, a suitable metadata model for neuroscience data has to balance flexibility and restrictiveness to accommodate the individuality of research products, without diminishing comparability across them. Powered by the Human Brain Project (HBP) and EBRAINS, we present the open Metadata Initiative for Neuroscience Data Structures (openMINDS). This novel initiative develops and maintains interlinked metadata models tailored to describe neuroscience research products in graph databases, such as the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph. The openMINDS research products cover data originating from human, animal or simulation studies (datasets), computational models (models), software tools (software), formal specifications for structuring metadata and/or data (metaDataModels), and reference brain atlases (brainAtlas). To illustrate the power of openMINDS, we present selected features describing these research products. We highlight how respective data and their provenance as well as studied specimens can be captured with user-defined granularity, and how the various integration of data via openMINDS can enhance its comparability and findability within and beyond the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph.

Mapping of parahippocampal and visual neural networks in mice: Preliminary evidence for feedback projections from perirhinal cortex to visual areas.
Vis sammendrag
Feedback projections from higher-order processing areas to lower-order areas within the visual system havebeen observed in several species. While much is known about the function of feedforward connections in thevisual processing pathway, feedback connections are not as well studied. They are thought to cause behaviorssuch as (selective) attention or expectations, but the exact mechanism and underlying neural connectivity isstill unknown. The perirhinal cortex (PRH) forms the intersection between perceptual and mnemonic areas ofthe visual processing pathway. Evidence from rats, monkeys and humans suggests that it is involved in bothobject memory and perceptual tasks, which is reflected in its connectivity. PRH forms numerous feedforwardand feedback projections with other areas of the visual processing pathway. However, little is known about thefunction and organization of feedback projections from PRH, and other parahippocampal regions, to visualareas in mice. Given the widespread availability of genetic and molecular tools, novel opportunities toinvestigate the function of these feedback projections would be enabled by mapping them in mice. Here wepresent preliminary data from anterograde and retrograde tract tracing experiments showing feedbackprojections from PRH, and other parahippocampal regions, to visual areas. We have found first evidence forfeedback projections from PRH to lower-order visual areas that were assumed to be exclusive to higher-developed animals such as monkeys or humans. Further, we have identified feedback projections from otherparahippocampal regions with specific subregional distribution.

A Practical Guide to Using the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph in (your) Research.
Vis sammendrag
Scientific articles are mostly published as text files containing unstructured and semi-structured information. Consequently, important information is typically deeply hidden in documents which severely limits the possibilities to automatically process and reuse scholarly knowledge. One approach to make information explicit and directly usable is to transform this into a standardised format and store it in a knowledge graph. This allows scholarly knowledge to be represented in a structured, machine-actionable, interlinked and semantically rich manner. The EBRAINS Knowledge Graph was developed to facilitate the search and information exchange in research, so that research results across different domains become directly comparable and easier to retrieve and reuse. Here, we provide a practical guide to extracting information from the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph using a user-friendly interface as well as a more advanced programmatic route via an Application Programming Interface (API). We also provide concrete examples on how the extracted information can be leveraged in order to develop new research objectives as well as validate ongoing research. The EBRAINS Knowledge Graph is integrated in the wider EBRAINS research infrastructure as a part of the EBRAINS Data and Knowledge services for sharing and finding research data and models. Data found through these services can be directly used and analysed via the various integrated tools and analysis workflows. The EBRAINS Knowledge Graph is a valuable machine-actionable and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) resource for discovery-based and hypothesis-driven research as it already contains a wide variety of neuroscience data types, models and software.

New functionalities i the QUINT workflow for brain atlas based image analysis.
Vis sammendrag
The novel QUINT workflow enables quantification and spatial analysis of labeling in series of histological section images from mouse or rat brains, that have been registered to 3D reference brain atlases (Allen Mouse Brain Atlas, CCFv3 and Waxholm Space atlas of the rat brain v2 and v3). The workflow utilizes several open source software developed with support from the Human Brain Project: QuickNII, ilastik, VisuAlign and Nutil.
Here we present new software functionalities: a tool for non-linear registration of 2D images to a reference atlas (VisuAlign) performed after the linear registration with QuickNII; an improved Nutil graphical user interface based on feedback from the community; and improved ilastik functionality allowing usage of masks, generated by tools like QuickNII or other software.
The workflow is exemplified by quantification of parvalbumin positive cells from an Allen mouse brain in situ hybridisation experiment, which is available in the EBRAINS data portal.

Neuroscience community-gains from data sharing through the EBRAINS infrastructure.
Vis sammendrag
EBRAINS provides tools and services which can be used to address challenges in brain research and brain-inspired technology development. EBRAINS assists scientists to collect, analyse, share and integrate brain data, and to perform modeling and simulation of brain function. EBRAINS is delivered by the EU Flagship Human Brain Project. All tools and services in EBRAINS are available for researchers in Europe and globally through https://ebrains.eu. Here we exemplify the use of the platform in different neuroscientific projects. In particular, the ‘Data & Knowledge’ services in EBRAINS offer one of the most comprehensive services for sharing brain research data ranging in type as well as spatial and temporal scale. An extensive metadata curation process ensures a robust presentation of datasets, models and software via the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph (https://kg.ebrains.eu/search/), making the data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR). By describing data across modalities in a standardised way and integrating it into the same reference space, data can be compared, combined and analysed with tools and analytical workflows embedded in the platform. New data, and data derived from the analytical workflows, can be submitted to curation and added to the existing EBRAINS datasets. The interplay between datasets, models and software makes EBRAINS attractive as a platform for discovery based and hypothesis driven research.

Data sharing through the online EBRAINS platform: a new service for brain research.
Vis sammendrag
Enhancing the reproducibility and transparency of research is an emerging theme across scientific disciplines, driven by new technological advances, and captured by the Open Science concept. The heterogeneity of research data, which often hinders direct comparisons of findings, adds a layer of complexity to this effort. To address these challenges in neuroscience, the Human Brain Project has developed a new research infrastructure, EBRAINS, providing tools and services to the neuroscientific community. The EBRAINS data curation service offers comprehensive stewardship for sharing experimental and computational data. New workflows and standards for neuroscience data and metadata management have been developed to make the research results discoverable, comparable across modalities, and possible to reanalyse and reuse in new combinations. Here we present our workflows and curation services tailored for sharing heterogeneous neuroscience data. We demonstrate the integration of such data in the infrastructure, and highlight some practicalities for researchers who want to share their neuroscience data through EBRAINS.

Integrating and analysing heterogeneous rodent neuroscience data using three-dimensional brain reference atlases.
Vis sammendrag
Achieving advances in the field of neuroscience with its rapidly growing number of published data requires integration across many scales and levels of investigation. Such integration is challenging due to the heterogeneous nature of the data, and the difficulty of comparing data from different studies. Key aspects include lack of standards for presentation of data and experimental parameters (metadata), and variable practices for assigning and reporting anatomical location in the brain. The EU Human Brain Project (HBP) is addressing these challenges by establishing an infrastructure of neuroinformatic tools and data curation services through which disparate neuroscience data can be shared, used and analysed. Three-dimensional (3D) open access brain reference atlases provide anatomical context for all the shared data, easing comparison and interpretation of findings. We here present HBP workflows for assigning metadata describing anatomical locations to different types of neuroscience data, and workflows for extracting, quantifying and co-visualizing morphological features from multiple datasets in 3D anatomical brain atlas viewers. We highlight the added value of mapping data to a common atlas framework in example studies, and demonstrate new analytic opportunities enabled by combining image analysis tools with information from a 3D brain reference atlas. The HBP now invites the community to use the new research infrastructure established.
