Open Source Brain: A Collaborative Resource for Visualizing, Analyzing, Simulating, and Developing Standardized Models of Neurons and Circuits

Publishing date: 2019-09-26 Published on: Neuron summary: Computational models are powerful tools for exploring the properties of complex biological systems. In neuroscience, data-driven models of neural circuits that span multiple scales are increasingly being used to understand brain function in health and disease.

Open Source Tools and Methods

Publishing date: 2019-09-26 Published on: eNeuro summary: eNeuro announce a new type of paper to provide a venue to share open-source tools and methods. Introducing this new type of papers offers several advantages: reducing the time and money laboratories spend to reinvent methods; increasing transparency; and improving reproducibility.

uORF-Tools – Workflow for the determination of translation-regulatory upstream open reading frames

Publishing date: 2019-09-26 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Ribosome profiling (ribo-seq) provides a means to analyze active translation by determining ribosome occupancy in a transcriptome-wide manner. The vast majority of ribosome protected fragments (RPFs) resides within the protein-coding sequence of mRNAs.
