Behavioral Neuroscience: Web Resources

Reference atlas

From Harvard University

Looking to hear how leading social scientists grapple with methodological issues in their research? Podcasts present in-depth discussions which explore stories from the field, the challenges of social science research, and how we can understand the social world.

A comprehensive repository of biomedical ontologies

A collaborative knowledge building project that aims to develop a knowledge base (or ontology) that characterizes the state of current thought in cognitive science.

Designed for use in classrooms as a “virtual wetlab” where you can load creatures saved in the full game, but with the connections and labels removed. It gives you the tools to perform experiments in order to unravel the connectivity diagram of the creature.

The APA Science Directorate answers requests each year from people trying to locate the right test or find more information about psychological tests. APA does provide guidance in using available resources to find psychological tests. Answers to frequently asked questions are provided and divided into three topic areas: published psychological tests, unpublished psychological tests and additional information on the proper use of tests.

Aim: A globally-used, community-based, data-driven encyclopedia for neuroscience that links brain research concepts to data, models, and the literature that support them.

From BrainInfo. Provides overview and explanations of terms, synonyms, definitions of 3000 central nervous system structures

Contains a data-driven ontology for neurobiological domains that synthesizes the texts and data of nearly 20,000 human neuroimaging articles.

NIF has been cataloging and surveying the neuroscience resource landscape since 2006. NIF is an initiative of the NIH Blueprint Consortium, which brings together 16 NIH Institutes, Centers and Offices that support neuroscience research into a collaborative framework to coordinate their ongoing efforts and to plan new cross-cutting initiatives.

The website is an independent science news site focusing mainly on neuroscience and other cognitive sciences.

A place where researchers can publicly store and share unthresholded statistical maps, parcellations, and atlases produced by MRI and PET studies.

An open platform for analyzing and sharing neuroimaging data from human brain imaging research studies

ImageJ is public domain open source software. It is a public domain Java image processing program inspired by NIH image. It runs, either as an online applet or as a downloadable application, on any computer with a Java 1.4 or later virtual machine.

An educational neural network app for exploring neural networks. Neuronify is useful for simulation-based neuroscience.
