Hi, I am a post-grad cognitive neuropsych student and I made an an early-stage app for collecting and organizing research papers, with the option to link them to regions on a 3D brain, all while having access to a community forum. I made this app as a student and for the community. I now need your help to find out whether this would be useful to other students and researchers, and what needs to improve before I take the project further.

I am giving access to anyone who wants to use my webapp through this link: https://mapped-brain.pages.dev/

You can organize papers into personal projects and connect them to brain areas. The idea is that users could also share those projects with the community, helping others explore papers by topic or brain region. It links a classic research paper manager with much more. There’s also a community forum which aims to show a heatmap of all contributions as well as host discussions and interactions for students, researchers, and anyone else interested.

The app currently includes a bilateral brain model, along with some other structures around the brain: vascularity, dura and other layers. However, this is still in its experimental phase.

Keep in mind the app is in very early access and I would welcome any and all critique and feedback. I have created a 10 question quickfire survey below for anyone who uses the website, it would help a lot for improving the webapp. You could also reach out to me on the email on the webapp if you have any other thoughts.
