Neuroscientists routinely perform experiments aimed at recording or manipulating neural activity, uncovering physiological processes underlying brain function or elucidating aspects of brain anatomy. Understanding how the brain generates behaviour ultimately depends on merging the results of these experiments into a unified picture of brain anatomy and function. We present BrainGlobe, a new initiative aimed at developing common Python tools for computational neuroanatomy. These include cellfinder for fast, accurate cell detection in whole-brain microscopy images, brainreg for aligning images to a reference atlas, and brainrender for visualisation of anatomically registered data. These software packages are developed around the BrainGlobe Atlas API. This API provides a common Python interface to download and interact with reference brain atlases from multiple species (including human, mouse and larval zebrafish). This allows software to be developed agnostic to the atlas and species, increasing adoption and interoperability of software tools in neuroscience.
