What are you trying to communicate? do functional studies on how plastic the brain is. If you have an accident, that can have a tremendous effect on your performance. If these accidents happen earlier in life, they have been observed to have less dramatic effects: the brain can learn to compensate. You are also interested in graphic arts and dance. How did this come to be? Iwasveryluckytobeinalabenvironment where people encouraged my artistic projects. They very much appreciated spendingalittletimeindatavisualization but also bringing data to venues which were rather artistic, where you get a very different view and appreciation of Women in Science This really depends on the context. I was so lucky to be introduced to the community we call Brainhack very early. It’s a community of open scien � sts that the data. In the beginning, we made an installa � on where you could walk into the brain: you were walking through the slices as if you were walking through your own brain. Now we have developed methods that allow you to have a 360 ‐ degree view of the structure of the brain. People are reaching out to us to use these images for di ff erent things, journal covers, even for a music album cover. It’s real data just visualized in a beau � ful way. I’m very happy about that. In a recent project, we analysed the brains of many di ff erent primate species, we reconstructed the brain surfaces in 3D. This is an aye ‐ aye for example:
