The virtual BigBrain atlas is hailed by neuroscientists as a technological tour de force that could help them better understand the organ's structure and function.
With painstaking detail, scientists have created a three-dimensional virtual brain that not only maps the organ's anatomy in unprecedented detail but also allows researchers to see how the invisible connections between cells produce the complex behaviors that make us human.
