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 ...

In all, they collected data that covers about 3.4 miles (5.4 kilometers) of neuronal wiring in a part of the brain that ...

Scientists have created the most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, mapping every cell and synapse in a cubic millimeter of a mouse’s visual cortex.

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

Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a ...

“It is no use asking for the impossible, such as, say, the exact wiring diagram for a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and the way all its neurons are firing,” Crick wrote in Scientific America ...

The wiring diagram and its data ... they are highly selective about which excitatory cells they target, creating a network-wide system of coordination and cooperation. Some inhibitory cells ...
