The function of neural circuits is an emergent property that
arises from the coordinated activity of large numbers of
neurons. To capture this, we propose launching a large-scale,
international public effort, the Brain Activity Map Project,
aimed at reconstructing the full record of neural activity
across complete neural circuits. This technological challenge
could prove to be an invaluable step toward understanding
fundamental and pathological brain processes.
