The 3D map covers a volume of about one cubic millimetre, one-millionth of a whole brain, and contains roughly 57,000 cells and 150 million synapses — the connections between neurons. It incorporates a colossal 1.4 petabytes of data. “It’s a little bit humbling,” says Viren Jain, a neuroscientist at Google in Mountain View, California, and a co-author of the paper. “How are we ever going to really come to terms with all this complexity?”

This Thursday evening (May 16th) we will continue our Movie Night, located at Fuli Teaching Building room 309. The movie “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?”is a 1988 American fantasy comedy film. Combining live-action and animation, the film is set in an alternate Hollywood in 1947, where humans and cartoon characters co-exist. It's a plot that follows Eddie Valiant, a private investigator with a grudge against toons, who must help exonerate Roger Rabbit, a toon framed for murder. You may bring snacks and drinks. See you there!
