大脑十年计划从1990年延伸至1999年。

但实际上,它从未结束。

对所有关于大脑的事物的持续庆祝再次延伸,随着一个致力于神经科学的庞大网站的揭幕。

Brainfacts.org—由盖茨比基金会和卡弗里基金会资助的为期六年、金额达153万美元的项目—汇集了来自领先组织的基础信息,范围从美国国立卫生研究院到法国的国际脑研究组织,记录了大脑的工作原理以及主要的脑部疾病。这些信息旨在为家长、教育工作者、学生和政策制定者提供帮助。“神经科学学会”是此次合作的第三个伙伴。

当有新的发现出现时,该网站会经科学家审查,除了媒体报道的链接外,还将发布关于新发现的背景信息。然而,该网站不是新闻聚合器。

BrainFacts.org 计划扩展其内容。在九月份,神经科学家将开始撰写博客,这将促成与读者的互动。

Gary Stix, senior editor of mind and brain topics at 大众科学, edits and reports on emerging advances that have propelled brain science to the forefront of the biological sciences. Stix has edited or written cover stories, feature articles and news on diverse topics, ranging from what happens in the brain when a person is immersed in thought to the impact of brain implant technology that alleviates mood disorders such as depression. Before taking over the neuroscience beat, Stix, as 大众科学's special projects editor, was responsible for the magazine's annual single-topic special issues, conceiving of and producing issues on Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin, climate change and nanotechnology. One special issue he oversaw on the topic of time in all of its manifestations won a National Magazine Award.
