A Cubic Millimeter of a Human Brain Has Been Mapped in Spectacular Detail
Google scientists have modeled all 150 million connections of a fragment of the human brain at nanoscale resolution
Researchers have mapped a tiny piece of the human brain in astonishing detail. The resulting cell atlas, which was described today in Science1 and is available online, reveals new patterns of connections between brain cells called neurons, as well as cells that wrap around themselves to form knots, and pairs of neurons that are almost mirror images of each other.
