Biggest Brain Map Ever Shows Mouse Neurons in Stunning Detail
Researchers have created the largest and most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, by mapping cells in a cubic millimetre of a mouse’s brain tissue. In a landmark achievement, the diagram also details the activity of individual neurons on a large scale―a neuroscience first.
Scientists map unprecedented detail of connections and visual perception in the mouse brain
In a massive scientific effort, hundreds of researchers have helped to map the connections between hundreds of thousands of neurons in the mouse brain and then overlayed their firing patterns in response to visual stimuli.
Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're all connected.
The Victorian paleontologist Richard Owen incorrectly argued that the human brain was the only brain to contain a small ...

Scientists sawed a human brain into 703 cubes to map its energy system for the first timeTo build the map, researchers at Columbia University and the University of Bordeaux took a slice of a frozen human brain and, ...
The first atlas of mitochondria in the brain could help scientists develop brain scans that determine the health of a patient’s mitochondria and if they are contributing to disease.
“It’s that the human brain must be working differently. It is just the fact that in the chimpanzee brain, you will have a visual stimulus going all the way from visual processing areas into ...
