- Angela Jane Roskams is a neuroscientist at the University of British Columbia (UBC) with a joint appointment in Neurosurgery at the University of Washington. She is professor at the Centre for Brain Health at UBC, and directed the laboratory of neural regeneration and brain repair, before winding down her lab in 2015–16 to become Executive Director of the Allen Institute for Brain Science, and a leader in the Open Science movement. After leading Strategy and Alliances for the Allen institute's multiple branches, she has become an influencer in the fields of neuroinformatics, public-private partnerships, and Open Data Sharing. Roskams completed fellowships in neuropathology and neuroscience at Johns Hopkins Medical School, where she began research to analyze the mechanisms that drive successful regeneration in the olfactory system and underscore the early loss of brain function in Alzheimer's disease. This led her to research examining the interplay between genetics and the environment in shaping how cells in the nervous system develop and adapt across the lifespan, and test for key differences in mouse brain circuits. Roskams currently directs analytics and training initiatives for the Canadian Open Neuroscience Platform (CONP), and is co-developer and co-PI of Mozak - an NIH funded online citizen science game-based approach to brain big data analytics. Her research is directed at best practices in large-scale data sharing, and the cross-testing of brain analytics platforms. She is leading the development of an online Global Training Space in brain data science in her work with the International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF), based at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. In addition to her work with the INCF, she is also an advisor to BrainMind and the XPrize, and a founding co-director of a digital health data company, Level42.ai. (en)
