SUMMARIZED Scientists have published highly detailed atlases of the human brain as part of the US-led BRAIN Initiative. These studies aim to understand the brain at a cellular level and provide insights into diseases like Alzheimer’s, schizophrenia, and depression. The atlases connect brain anatomy with cell function, creating a comprehensive view of the brain’s normal state and its changes during development. The maps cover various scales, from genes to cells to larger brain regions, and will help unravel the complexity of the brain. The ultimate goal is to use this knowledge to diagnose and treat brain diseases. Collaboration between scientists and brain projects worldwide is crucial for advancing research and finding new treatments. The BRAIN Initiative plans to release a complete atlas of the mouse brain in 2024, followed by the human brain in the future.
