Neural Ensembles & Used Substances (NExUS) Collaboratory: Building a Multimodal Inventory of Cell Ensembles Encoding the Effects of Addictive Substances
Funds a multi-lab effort to catalogue which brain-cell populations addiction and drug exposure recruit or change.
Addiction changes the brain, but which specific populations of neurons and other brain cells actually shift, and how, is still being mapped one study at a time. This notice funds a shared effort to build that map collaboratively instead.
The NExUS Collaboratory's job is to build a multimodal inventory of the cell ensembles that encode the effects of addictive substances — which cell types respond…
Building a shared, multimodal inventory of neural cell ensembles that encode the effects of addictive substances — collecting and integrating single-cell and multi-omic datasets, developing analysis and visualisation tools for ensemble composition, testing models of how cells are recruited into coding ensembles, and coordinating data standards with other cell-atlasing efforts.
