Allen Institute Taps AWS, Google to Spur ‘Aha Moments’ in Neuroscience with New Brain Research Platform

The Allen Institute unveiled the Brain Knowledge Platform, an AI-driven resource that unifies massive neuroscience datasets across species, ages and institutions. Built with core computing infrastructure from AWS (Amazon Web Services), the platform standardizes data for cross-comparison and advances research on conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Contributors include major research groups, with funding from the NIH BRAIN Initiative.
