Inscopix Announces Cloud-Based IDEAS Platform for Neuroscience Research with New Neural Circuit Workflow

This updated version of the Inscopix Data Exploration, Analysis and Sharing (IDEAS) Platform has added features and tools for neural circuit insights including peri-event analysis.

Inscopix, Inc., a neuroscience company helping decode the brain for tomorrow’s treatments, announced that it is launching the Inscopix Data Exploration, Analysis and Sharing (IDEAS) Platform to help neuroscience research groups improve how they analyze and organize neuroscience data.

“We now live in the age of big brain data, and the IDEAS platform is the first integrated, multi-modality solution to address the 21st century needs of managing and analyzing brain data at scale,” said Kunal Ghosh, Ph.D., CEO at Inscopix.

Initially launched in December 2021 as an enterprise-friendly solution, the cloud-based IDEAS Platform is the first-of-its-kind turnkey solution for multimodal preclinical research data and a powerful database solution with scalable compute infrastructure. Addressing one of the major roadblocks in today’s brain research, IDEAS supports the organization, management, multi-modal integration, analysis, and sharing of neuroscience imaging data and methods to accelerate basic research and catalyze progress towards the next-generation of neurotherapeutics.

“The development and launch of IDEAS is perhaps the most significant product milestone for Inscopix since the invention and launch of the miniscope,” said Kunal Ghosh, Ph.D., CEO at Inscopix. “With the miniscope platform and other novel brain mapping tools, we now live in the age of big brain data, and the IDEAS platform is the first integrated, multi-modality solution to address the 21st century needs of managing and analyzing brain data at scale.”

With the academic release coming soon, the IDEAS platform will include the Peri-Event Analysis Workflow for turnkey secondary analysis of neural circuit activity and user-defined timestamps, including four commonly used metrics:

• Average population activity across events
• Single neuron heatmaps across events
• Activity-based population categorization
• Spatial organization of activity

The Workflow completes the analyses in minutes on the cloud and can be batch executed, with no additional software tools and/or data science analysis needed beyond the IDEAS Platform for efficient management and sharing of the results.

“The use of multiple data-rich technologies also brings challenges like the siloed and cumbersome storage of data, lack of collaborative tools and the absence of readily shared analysis methods,” said David Gray, Ph.D., CSO at Inscopix, “The new IDEAS Platform is an integrated, user-friendly solution that overcomes these challenges, and we’re now excited to offer it to both enterprise and individual research labs.”

Multimodal and neuroimaging data are rich and complex, and require a powerful compute environment that allows researchers to focus on experiments and results. New modalities and combined data-sets bring us closer to understanding the brain, but can also add significant challenges in analysis. IDEAS simplifies all of the post-experiment data handling and makes robust compute and data-management resources as well as deep analysis workflows accessible to researchers in any lab.
