Ernst Strüngmann Institute for Neuroscience Frankfurt (ESI)

Understanding the connection code of neurons, akin to the genetic code, remains elusive despite advancements in neuroscientific methods. Techniques like connectomics are exploring brain wiring to decipher its computational functions and structural constraints, continuing the work suggested by Ramón y Cajal a century ago. This understanding is crucial for uncovering how brain morphology influences neural circuitry and overall brain functionality.

The human brain | Max-Planck-Gesellschaft

The human brain, an intricate organ with 100 billion nerve cells, continues to learn and adapt throughout life, challenging the outdated belief that adult brains are static. Recent studies liken the brain to a muscle that can be strengthened with targeted exercises, although the effectiveness of “brain jogging” programs in enhancing overall cognitive performance remains debated among scientists.
