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 ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to ...

Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic centimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're all connected.

The team of scientists behind the project said the map of neuron wiring was so complex, it looked like a picture of a galaxy.

Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date.
