🧠🧬🔧If you are passionate about understanding brain morphogenesis across scales and modalities, this is a unique opportunity! This will be the first atlas of its kind, combining not only from molecular to connectivity data, but also brain mechanics! (9/10).

We love to combine neuroscience with data visualisation (2D, 3D, AR/VR), art, philosophy, and our lab is something of a hacker space (8/10)

We'd love to push the frontiers of data-sharing into distributed collaboration, and we've developed several tools for this, such as and where users can view and annotate histology or MRI data simultaneously and online (6/10)

💻 You will use advanced computational neuroanatomy tools to combine the different modalities into an integrated atlas. We will use this atlas to study the changes resulting from genetic and mechanical perturbations of folding (5/10).

🔬 Why ferrets? Ferrets are born with smooth and immature brains (they only open their eyes by the end of the 1st month!). Folding, corticocortical connectivity and arealisation all develop over the 1st month: a unique window into the development of a complex brain (4/10)

📊 The goal: to build a holistic, multi-scale atlas to link a wide range of modalities mapping cellular/molecular processes, global shape and connectivity, and mechanical changes during the period of brain folding in ferrets (3/10).

🌍 Unfold unites four international teams of experts in cellular, molecular, and mechanical processes to uncover the causes and consequences of brain folding. You’ll integrate diverse datasets - gene expression, mechanics, histology, MRI - to map ferret brain development. (2/10).
