Abstract: Mice are an experimental model of choice in neuroscience, but the translation to the human brain is a challenge. This is a roadblock to comparing mechanistic and interventional studies. I will present the different frameworks we have developed to establish translational links between brain networks in mice and humans, in both healthy and disordered conditions. Finally, I will showcase our efforts to federate rodent brain imaging, including the contribution of Ruhr-Universität Bochum, to evolve rodent network mapping to the era of big data .
We hope to see you there!
