If we can fully map the structure of our brains, will we be able to understand how they work? That is the goal of researchers attempting to build a wiring diagram, or connectome, of our neural ...

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for a fruit fly. The diagram of all 139,255 neurons in the adult fly brain is ...

Research from a team of Harvard and Google scientists has revealed never-before-seen details of the human brain’s structure. The findings pave the way for a better understanding of AI—and, in turn, ...

Researchers have produced a full map of an adult fruit fly's brain cells This map could help us understand how our own minds ...

From the smallest fragment of brain tissue, the intricate blueprint of the entire brain is beginning to emerge. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine are making several time-consuming aspects of ...

In a landmark study released today, artificial intelligence (AI) has been used to reveal over a thousand previously hidden components within the human brain’s connectome. These intricate neural ...

Let a mouse nose around a house, and it will rapidly find food and form a strategy to return to it without getting caught. Given the same task, an AI would require millions of training examples and ...
