Brain Net

Brain-Net is a neuropathological reference work, for diseases of the central nervous system such as Alzheimer`s, Depression, Parkinson’s disease, Schizophrenia, and others.

Brain tissue samples will be collected, diagnosed by specialists, and stored. These samples will be made available to other researchers upon request through a database in the internet. The iAS has been assigned the technical coordination as well as the design and construction of the user interface. Because iAS is also responsible for the technical implementation of Knowledge Network Parkinson, the two Neuro-MedNets can be coordinated.

Why the Brain-Net is necessary

Our knowledge concerning the biochemistry of the brain is increasing, leading to ever new insights into the genetics of brain diseases, as well as to a deeper understanding of functional anatomy – due to various imaging techniques.

Consequently, brain and tissue banking is much needed in order to improve the quality of work in neurology and psychiatries.

Knowledge Network Parkinson

On January 15, 1999, the German government decided to sponsor nine medical competence networks, among them the Kowledge Network Parkinson. For this network, iAS has taken on the responsibility of the network technology and the design of the user interfaces.Please click below to go to Knowledge Network Parkinson.

Neuro Anatomy – Intro

The iAS has developed and produced a number of breathtaking exponats for the world fair Expo2000. Ahead of all, the “virtual human being”, but also installations for the thematic area “humankind” which deals with a wide variety of facets of human life. For this area, the iAS produced the multimedia installations “The time cube” (“Der Zeitwürfel”), “The fingerprints of thinking” (“Fingerabdruck des Denkens”), “The control loop of laughter” (“Regelkreis des Lachens”) and “The 3D Box” (“3D-Würfel”). These expressive and profound multimedia productions show the visitor his body and soul from a different viewpoint and give new insights into the fascinating world of the human brain.
