Welcome to EyeWire
A GAME TO MAP THE BRAIN

How to Play

The Basics
  • How to Play: An overview of how to play EyeWire.
  • Tutorials: These videos will help you through the tutorial if you'd like further assistance.
  • Player Roles: EyeWire players can advance in rankings and obtain special roles as they play.
  • Competitions: Each week, there are special competitions where players can get additional points.
  • The Eyewire Lexicon: Some terms used in the game that may be unfamiliar.

Some Challenges

How it Works

  • F-Scores and Accuracy: How do we compute each player's accuracy score?
  • The Consensus: How do we crowdsource reconstructions and determine what is the most accurate reconstruction?

The Neuroscience

  • The Cell Museum: The Cell Museum is a newly released visualization platform that showcases retinal cell types reconstructed by EyeWire. In addition to providing our own classification for these neurons, we include stratification profile data for each cell. Detailed annotation of cell names can be found in the Database.
  • Retinal Neuron Classification: In conjunction with the Cell Museum, we are developing a database of retinal ganglion cells in an attempt to create a comprehensive catalog of all neuronal cell types in the retina. Our hope is to collaborate with experts in the field to generate a resource that unifies current classification efforts and can be referenced for future research.

Ways to Get Involved

The Technology


For Science! Extras

  • Neural computational models: Neural network algorithms for modeling biological brain tasks in the digital space.
  • Software: Help and troubleshooting for any program used by/for Eyewire.
  • For parentsː Addresses some usual queries parents may have about their child being on Eyewire.
  • EyeWire Libraryː List of research papers from the 24 students of 2012's MOSTEC.

With the help of a collaboration with KT Corporation, EyeWire has been able to reconstruct 245 neurons in a portion of the EyeWire dataset in around 9 months. The image shows various types of retinal ganglion cells in the ganglion cell layer (GCL) mapped in this period. The blue strip is a blood vessel running the dataset.
