The MIT & Harvard medical school and CS had a joint project called something like the Brain initiative to collect that combining results from: - inferences of neuron interactions from electronic wiring individual neurons in mice brains; - fMRI and tFMI (a mathematical extension that associates area that are activated one after the other) on live humans; - scanning ultra-thin slices (volunteer human brain donor) and using that for an neuron-to-synapse complete map of at least one brain. Both the slicing technology and the AI to re-combine images into not just a 3D model, but a complete connectron are pretty mind-blowing achievements. If you combine that to the possible impact in AI and medical learnings on how things like degenerescence, you can imagine why it ends up feeling far more ambitious than the Manhattan project.
