A team of over 150 scientists has achieved what once seemed impossible: a complete wiring and activity map of a tiny section of a mammalian brain. This feat, part of the MICrONS Project, rivals the ...

The project, called Machine Intelligence from Cortical Networks (MICrONS), offers unprecedented insight into the brain’s function and organization that could help unlock the secrets of intelligence.

From a tiny sample of tissue no larger than a grain of sand, scientists have come within reach of a goal once thought unattainable: building a complete functional wiring diagram of a portion of the ...

Scientists achieved “a milestone” by charting the activity and structure of 200,000 cells in a mouse brain and their 523 ...

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.
