Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What if we could watch the brain make a decision-moment by moment, neuron by neuron?In 2024, the International Brain Laboratory, a historic collaboration of 22 labs across the globe, unveiled the first large-scale map of how the brain decides. By recording the activity of over 600,000 neuro…ns in 139 mice, they showed something astonishing: decision-making is not confined to a single "center" of the brain but spreads like an orchestra, activating networks across nearly the entire brain.This book tells the story of that scientific revolution. From the invention of Neuropixels probes-tiny digital devices that can record thousands of neurons at once-to the training of mice in carefully designed experiments, to the unprecedented global teamwork that made it all possible, this is the story of how neuroscience entered a new era.Drawing parallels to the Human Genome Project and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the book explores how brain science is shifting from isolated labs to big science collaborations. It explains how the findings reshape our understanding of cognition, memory, and free will-and why they matter for medicine, artificial intelligence, and even philosophy.Along the way, you'll discover: Why decision-making is not localized, but distributed across networks.How prior knowledge and expectation shape choices before we're even aware of them.What this breakthrough means for diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ADHD.How brain mapping could inspire next-generation AI architectures.The profound ethical questions raised by mapping-and possibly influencing-human decisions.At its heart, this is more than a story about mice. It is about the future of humanity's quest to understand itself. Just as astronomy built sky surveys to map the universe, neuroscience is building its own cosmic atlas of the mind.The Brain Map Revolution is a sweeping journey through one of the most ambitious scientific projects of our time. It is for anyone fascinated by the brain, inspired by the future of science, or curious about what it really means to decide. This item is printed on demand.
