Human Connectome

The video introduces the Human Connectome, a project aimed at mapping the neural connections in the human brain. It explains the structure of neurons and the roles of gray and white matter. Using advanced MRI techniques, researchers have discovered that brain fibers are organized in a 3D grid, challenging previous beliefs. This organization may provide insights into brain evolution and complexity. The Human Connectome Project is expected to be completed in the next five years, offering further understanding of the brain's structure and function.

What implications does the grid model of the brain have for understanding the evolution of the human brain?
