Julich-Brain Cytoarchitectonic Atlas

Julich-Brain CytoViewer impressions

Julich-Brain is a three-dimensional atlas of the human brain with maps of the cortex and subcortical areas. The atlas currently contains maps of more than 200 regions and is constantly being expanded ("living atlas"). The maps are based on the analysis of cell body stained tissue sections, which were mapped with image analysis and statistical tools in 10 postmortem brains each. This happened in more than 48 individual projects, which were published in scientific journals.

When you use the maps, please cite the primary reference of Julich-Brain:

K. Amunts, H. Mohlberg, S. Bludau, K. Zilles, Julich-Brain: A 3D probabilistic atlas of the human brain’s cytoarchitecture. Science 369, 988-992 (2020)

and the relevant publications of the areas/nuclei under investigation. The latter references are available through the Julich-Brain Atlas Viewer and the HBP-Website. Maps should not be used commercially.
