In a first, a large, international team led by multiple labs at Harvard Medical School and Princeton University has published a complete wiring diagram of all the connections between neurons in the ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

Recent technological advances have enabled measurement of the synaptic wiring diagram, or ‘connectome’, of large neural circuits or entire brains. However, the extent to which such data constrain ...

Neuroimaging studies have extensively demonstrated alterations in the brain connectome associated with a wide range of neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease 1, ...
