##Description KnowledgeSpace (KS) is a community encyclopaedia that links brain research concepts and terminology with data, models and literature from around the world. It is an open project and welcomes participation and contributions from members of the global research community.

The PHP file at /controllers/ServiceUtil.php contains all utility functions for accessing the data through the REST API.
