Michał Januszewski and his team at Google Research, in collaboration with HHMI Janelia and Harvard University, are working on an ambitious project to create a comprehensive dataset of the brain activity and nanoscale structure of a single larval zebrafish. This research aims to bridge the gap between structural brain mapping (connectomics) and functional understanding. While connectomics provides high-resolution images of brain fragments, revealing cells and their connections, it only offers a static view of the brain. To address this limitation, Michał's team is developing a multimodal dataset that captures both the neural activity and the detailed architecture of an entire brain. By tracking these elements in real-time, the project could lead to significant advancements in understanding how brains function dynamically, potentially offering insights into human brain activity and cognition. This interdisciplinary effort combines advanced imaging techniques and computational analysis to push the boundaries of neuroscience.
