BrainGlobe

This package provides all BrainGlobe tools in one place, installable in a single command. Installing this package will provide you with the complete suite of BrainGlobe tools, without needing to worry about dependency resolution. A complete list of the tools provided by this package is provided on our website, and you can also read more about these tools there too.

If you are interested in running some of our analysis workflows, you might want to head over to brainglobe-workflows and install the analysis pipelines offered by that package too.

Installing and Updating

See the installation instructions over on the BrainGlobe website for full information. But the TLDR is;

pip install brainglobe

and to update,

pip install brainglobe --update

Seeking help or contributing

We are always happy to help users of our tools, and welcome any contributions. If you would like to get in contact with us for any reason, please see the contact page of our website.

The Brainglobe Initiative

The BrainGlobe Initiative exists to facilitate the development of interoperable Python-based tools for computational neuroanatomy.

We have three aims:

• Develop specialist software for specific analysis and visualisation needs, such as cellfinder and brainrender.
• Develop core tools to facilitate others to build interoperable tools in Python, e.g. the BrainGlobe Atlas API.
• Build a community of neuroscientists and developers to share knowledge, build software and engage with the scientific, and open-source community (e.g. by organising hackathons).

Funding Information

The BrainGlobe project is only possible due to grant funding and the generous support of host institutions, whose information can be found on this website.
