  • The Source Search function retrieves experiments by anatomical location of the injection site.
  • The Target Search function returns a rank list of experiments by signal volume in the user specified target structure(s).
  • The Spatial Search function returns a rank list of experiments by density of signal in the user specified target voxel location.
  • The Injection Coordinate Search function returns a rank list of experiments by distance of their injection site to a user - specified reference space coordinateseed location.
  • The Correlation Search function enables the user to find experiments that have a similar spatial projection profile to a seed experiment when compared over a user-specified domain.

The projection grid search service is available through both the Web application and API.

To perform a Source Search, a user specifies a set of source structures. The service returns all experiments for which either the primary injection structure or one of its secondary injection structures corresponding to one of the specified source structures or their descendents in the ontology. The search results can also be filtered by a specified list of transgenic lines.

Target Search

To perform a Target Search, the user specifies a set of target structures. The service returns a rank list of experiments by signal volume in the target structures which are above a minimum threshold. The target structure specification can be further refined by hemisphere. The search results can also be filtered by a list of source structures and/or list of transgenic lines.
