📝 Mapping the Brain with Connectomics Did you know that mapping a speck of the human brain (smaller than a grain of rice) revealed never-before-seen structures, like single neurons connected by up to 50 synapses? This offers us brand-new clues into how the brain processes information, forms memories, and what happens when those networks fail. Mapping these intricate networks is a field called connectomics and it’s critical to helping scientists understand how the brain…
