After establishing the Brain Simulation Section at the Charité in 2017, we now have a brand-new website where you can find everything about our research, activities and many educational resources about brain simulation:
The Brain Simulation Section is leading a major new research initiative together with 17 European research partners, dubbed The VirtualBrainCloud: “Exploiting the full potential of in-silico medicine research for personalized diagnostics and therapies in cloud-based environments”.
This initiative is funded by [European Commission's Horizon2020 program](https://cordis.europa.eu/project/rcn/2
The Virtual Brain, one of the leading open source neuroscience platforms is celebrating its 10,000th download!
This software is at the heart of the Brain Simulation Section's research activities. The TVB consortium was founded by Viktor Jirsa (AMU, Marseille), Randy McIntosh (Baycrest, Toronto) and the head of the Brain Simulation Section, Prof. D
On October 1, 2017, Dr. Petra Ritter assumed the position of BIH Johanna Quandt Professor for Brain Simulation at Berlin Institute of Health (BIH) and Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin.
This W2 professorship is funded by Stiftung Charité.
