<p style="text-align: justify;">Understanding the human brain
relies for a large part on work in animal models, which
necessitates a careful <b>cross-species comparison</b>. The <b>prefrontal
cortex</b> (PFC) is particularly relevant in this regard as
its function is poorly understood and potential cross-species
differences remain highly debated. This workshop brings together
experimental and computational<b> </b>scientists whose work
allows a comparison of the <b>anatomy</b> and <b>function</b> of
the PFC between species (in particular between humans, monkeys
and mice).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://ebrains.eu/">EBRAINS</a> is
uniquely suited to provide a platform to compare anatomy,
physiology and behaviour between species, due to its atlases,
numerous datasets, as well as the whole brain models from
different species. The <b>interactive format</b> of the workshop
will allow speakers as well as participants from largely
separated fields to interact and discuss, which is expected to
create novel insights as well as lead to more coherence and
clarity in the relevant terminology, formats and important
research directions in the field.</p>
