Identifying the map of synaptic connections between neurons is one of the greatest challenges in neuroscience. Called the "connectome," it is the holy grail that will explain how information flows in the brain.

Connections Between Neurons Accurately Predicted By Blue Brain Project
Identifying the map of synaptic connections between neurons is one of the greatest challenges in neuroscience.
