In a first, the 3D reconstruction of a mouse brain linked structure to activity. Let a mouse nose around a house, and it will rapidly find food and form a strategy to return to it without getting caught. Given the same task, an AI would require millions of training examples and consume a

The thalamus is a gateway, shuttling select information into consciousness. How consciousness emerges in the brain is the ultimate mystery. Scientists generally agree that consciousness relies on multiple brain regions working in tandem. But the areas and neural connections supporting our
