Allen Institute -

To truly understand the brain, we need a roadmap of how it’s wired. The gold standard for studying the cellular architecture and the connectivity of brain cells is what scientists call serial-section electron microscopy. ... In 2016, with the support of IARPA, the Allen Institute for Brain Science joined a collaboration with Baylor College of Medicine and Princeton University to build high-resolution roadmap of wiring in the brain.
