===Research=== Both the [[Allen Institute for Brain Science]] and the [[Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence]] were incubated at Vulcan Inc. Started at Vulcan Inc. in 2001, the [[Allen Brain Atlas]] project sought to understand the connections between genes and brain functioning. From the project's research, Paul Allen created the Allen Institute for Brain Science in 2003 with a $100 million donation.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/arleneweintraub/2017/10/25/paul-allen-just-made-his-biggest-step-yet-to-map-the-human-brain/|title=Paul Allen Just Made His Biggest Step Yet To Map The Human Brain|last=Weintraub|first=Arlene|work=Forbes|access-date=June 20, 2018|language=en|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180620232842/https://www.forbes.com/sites/arleneweintraub/2017/10/25/paul-allen-just-made-his-biggest-step-yet-to-map-the-human-brain/|archive-date=June 20, 2018|url-status=live}}</ref> Project Halo came next.
