Case studies

  • Open Brain Institute

    Open Brain Institute: a virtual lab platform that turned hard-to-read brain models into one place to explore, simulate and validate them. More than 1,200 labs adopted it.

  • Swiss Brain Observatory

    Swiss Brain Observatory: a guided path to connect neural circuits and build connectomes, from a single neuron to the whole brain, replacing a long and complex process.

  • Nexus Fusion

    Nexus Fusion: a data platform that links research data by provenance, replacing terminal-only access. Now 94% of published data gets viewed.
