#55 Mapping the Human Brain - (Intro)
Have you ever wondered how our brain really works? This episode is about one of the most ambitious projects in the history of neuroscience, The Human Connectome Project. The purpose of the project is to help show us what's happening under our skull by building a detailed activity map of the human brain. This would also enable research into brain disorders such as dyslexia, autism, Alzheimer’s, and schizophrenia.
