Many functions of the human brain are distinctly if not uniquely human, many even unique to specific individuals. Brain function depends on precise patterns of neuronal connectivity, which are reflected in the morphology of individual neurons within populations. Still, much remains to be learned about the morphological correlates of human brain function – and dysfunction – at this level.
Jonathan is developing novel DNA-based molecular machines that will enable him to study neuronal morphology and connectivity, especially long distance connectivity between brain areas, in humans. |
