The 3D brain map includes more than 200,000 cells, 523 million synapses and over two miles of axons, representing the most detailed wiring diagram of a piece of mammal brain ever constructed Margherita Bassi - Daily Correspondent April 10, 2025 Get our newsletter! Get our newsletter! In 1979, biologist Francis Crick claimed it would be impossible to create an accurate diagram of the brains wiring and neuronal activityeven within just a cubic millimeter of brain tissue.
