World’s first anatomically and genomically comprehensive human brain map.

A new very powerful resource for researchers & scientist. 1 step closer to understanding the most complex system in the universe!

"Data analysis from the two human brains indicate that at least 82 percent of all human genes are expressed in the brain... The Allen Human Brain Atlas identifies 1,000 anatomical sites in the human brain, backed by more than 100 million data points that indicate the particular gene expression and underlying biochemistry of each site.
The Atlas also makes it possible to pinpoint where a particular drug acts anatomically in the brain, to ultimately better control the successful outcome of numerous therapies."
