"09/19/2012 Researchers said Monday a new computerized model of part of a rat’s cortex predicts connections between neurons, which could help explain how the brains of mammals — including humans — work."
"According to the researchers, whose findings are published in this week’s issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the locations on the model matched that of synapses found in the equivalent real-brain circuit with 75 to 95 percent accuracy.
“Overall, this work represents a major acceleration in the ability to construct detailed models of the nervous system,” according to the statement."
