Scientists mapped a cubic millimeter of the human brain in extreme detail.
The source was a tissue sample from a patient with epilepsy.
The map includes 57,000 cells, 230 mm of vessels, and 150 million synapses.
This project to accelerate connectomics, the study of how neurons connect.
The dataset is 1.4 petabytes and publicly available for exploration.
The map revealed previously unknown features like tangled neurons and multi-contact connections.
The team is now working to validate the map and remove AI errors.
Further studies using this resource may bring valuable insights into the mysteries of the human brain.
Research collaborated between Harvard University and Google published in the journal Science.
