title: From connections to function: the mouse brain connectome atlas.
abstract: Mapping synaptic connections and projections is crucial for understanding brain dynamics and function. In a recent issue of Nature, Oh et al. present a wiring diagram of the whole mouse brain, where standardized labeling, tracing, and imaging of axonal connections reveal new details in the network organization of neuronal connectivity.
