The Champalimaud Foundation (CF) played an important role in this achievement. Not only was CF’s Systems Neuroscience Lab one of the 12 experimental labs where the large-scale recordings were carried out, but CF also hosted much of the engineering team that designed and maintained the infrastructure that made such an unprecedented dataset possible.
