Multimedia Scholarship and Creative Works
|
|
Online knowledge management system, The Brain Architecture Management System (BAMS) is a repository of knowledge about brain parts from different species, and includesinference engines for processing the neurobiological data. BAMS contains five interrelated modules: Brain Parts (brain regions, major fiber tracts, and ventricles), Cell Types, Molecules, Relations, and Connections.
