Coord2Region: Coordinates into Insights

Transform coordinates or region names into related studies, AI summaries, and AI‑generated images

Coord2Region is both a Python package and a web experience. Feed it MNI coordinates or region names and it lines up atlas labels, nearby studies, optional LLM summaries, and illustrative images. Underneath the hood you get NiMARE, Nilearn, and MNE working together without wiring every dependency yourself.

  • Atlas lookups across Harvard–Oxford, Schaefer, Destrieux, Jülich, and more.
  • Study retrieval via Neurosynth, NeuroQuery, and NiMARE datasets.
  • AI extras for summaries and images (bring your API keys, or run purely offline).
  • Export-ready outputs: YAML + CLI commands + JSON/CSV deliverables.

Why use the builder?

No-install prototyping

Craft a complete Coord2Region run from the browser, inspect the YAML live, and copy the CLI command with zero setup.

Config authoring surface

Already scripted? Import a YAML, tweak parameters safely, download the updated config, or hand collaborators a clickable preset.

Teaching-friendly presets

Jump-start analyses with curated templates (single peak lookup, region → coords, full insights bundle) and see what changes.

Guardrails built in

Each toggle always updates the YAML, the CLI command, and a direct “no YAML” command so you know exactly what will execute.

Builder walkthrough

  1. Inputs. Paste coordinate triples or list region names. CSV upload is supported for large batches.
  2. Atlas selection. Search, filter, or add custom URLs/paths. Mix volumetric and surface atlases as needed.
  3. Studies & summaries. Toggle nearby study retrieval, then layer in LLM summaries with your preferred provider.
  4. Images. Combine nilearn anatomical figures with AI prompts or swap in Stable Diffusion/Claude/GPT image backends.
  5. Outputs. Choose the working directory, export format, and whether to emit batch-friendly CSV/JSON bundles.

The right panel mirrors every change: YAML preview (copy/download), the standard YAML-driven CLI command, a direct “no YAML” command, and a template/import drawer for round-tripping configs.

Cloud Runner

Prefer not to run anything locally? Authenticate, submit a config, and let the hosted Cloud Runner execute the full pipeline (labels, studies, summaries, images). You can monitor jobs, stream logs, and download results (YAML/JSON/CSV/images) right from the browser.

Queue & monitor

Drop a YAML, pick your providers, and watch progress in real time. Cancel or rerun jobs with a click.

Shareable outputs

Results stick around so co-authors and students can inspect the same artefacts without juggling local environments.

BYO credentials

Use your own AI keys securely. Summaries and images are powered by the exact providers you choose.
