Thanks for attending the webinar or viewing the video of the Open for (neuro)science symposium day 3: Common Coordinate Framework and MICrONS Explorer, featuring @lydian, Bing Brunton, @fcollman, Agnes Bodor, JoAnn Buchanan, Carolyn Ott, and Nick Turner! The speakers discussed their research using the publicly available [Common Coordinate Framework](https://community.brain-map.org/t/allen-mouse-ccf-accessing-and-using-related-data-and-tools/359) and [MICrONS Explorer](https://microns-explorer.org/).

Please feel free to chime in here with additional questions or follow-up questions to those asked at the live symposium. You can find the recording of this symposium and accompanying tutorials [here](https://alleninstitute.org/what-we-do/brain-science/events-training/open-for-neuroscience/).

Additional questions to those answered during the symposium Q&A:  
**Question** : Is the Allen Mouse Brain CCFv3 the final atlas version, or will there be new iterations in the near future?  
**Lydia** : There will always be new iterations of anatomical atlases!

**Question** : What is the average time of making the 3rd structure of your block of tissue and what the accuracy of the reconstruction?  
**Forrest** : At our present capability the block I talked about can be imaged in about a week on a single microscope. Our image processing pipeline can essentially keep up with that rate of data production. The segmentation process is all machine learning, so the run-time of running the process isn’t that large, but that is deceiving in that most of the work goes into creating training data and traininig the algorithms, not running them.
