The phrase
"human connectome" refers to the intricate network of connections within the human brain. It represents the intricate wiring system that links different regions and enables communication and coordination between them. Think of it as a map of the pathways that allow information to flow and be processed throughout the brain, similar to how roads connect different cities on a map. Understanding the
human connectome helps researchers understand how the brain functions and how certain conditions or diseases can affect these connections.

Second, I will introduce recent advances in methods for
mapping human connectomes in living individuals (Takemura et al., PLoS computational Biology 2016).
On the mis - presentation and misinterpretation of gender - related data: the case of Ingalhalikar's
human connectome study.
This is all part of a UCLA study of
the human connectome, senior division.
The DMN has become one of the most - studied networks of
the human connectome.
Their efforts could be seen as a dry run for a project that is at least four orders of magnitude greater: mapping
the human connectome.
«With synchrotron X-ray imaging, mapping
the human connectome at single - neuron resolution is now more realistic,» Chiang says.
Here Guntupalli et al. develop a high - dimensional common model of
the human connectome that captures both coarse and fine - scale structure of connectivity shared across brains.
Sporns is calling it «
the human connectome» after the billion - dollar human genome project, but it's bound to be far more sophisticated.
If you grew up in a world where a megabyte is a big dataset, you probably have no hope of understanding the scale of
a human connectome dataset.
Principle to the quest to map
the human connectome is the question of how memories are stored.
Mapping
the human connectome will rely on a descriptive rather than empirical approach to research, revitalizing classic debates of the value of induction versus deduction in the sciences.
For Sporns, the true value of
the human connectome lies in the aggregate behavior of its parts.
