 | Guglielmo Marconi | Connectome Mapping | Place Cells | Mapping the connectome is like having the blueprints to the brain's entire operating system, far more comprehensive for understanding the full picture of human cognition. |
 | Andy Weir | Synaptic Plasticity | Connectome Mapping | Synaptic plasticity is like the brain's 'flex tape,' letting it adapt and learn like a boss, while connectome mapping is just a killer diagram of what’s already there. |
 | Claude Shannon | Connectome Mapping | Place Cells | Connectome Mapping is like decoding the brain's wiring diagram, offering a bigger picture that can illuminate how the brain's network architecture underpins complex behaviors. |
 | George Orwell | Connectome Mapping | Default Mode Network | Connectome Mapping is like the map of a dystopian city's neural highways, giving us a clearer picture of the brain's intricate networks and pathways. |
 | Cliff Clavin | Neuroplasticity | Connectome Mapping | Well, ya see, neuroplasticity's like the brain's own way of gettin' buff and adaptable, makin' it the Rocky Balboa of brain stuff, so it gets the nod. |
 | Antoine Lavoisier | Connectome Mapping | Brain Waves | Connectome Mapping's got that deep, detailed structure vibe that gives us the ultimate blueprint of the brain's neural connections. |
 | Jensen Huang | Synaptic Plasticity | Connectome Mapping | Synaptic plasticity is where the magic happens, unlocking the brain's ability to learn and adapt like a GPU accelerating AI workloads. |
 | Neal Stephenson | Synaptic Plasticity | Connectome Mapping | Synaptic Plasticity is like the dynamic jazz riff that lets our brains adapt and groove with life, whereas Connectome Mapping is the static sheet music that shows us where the notes might hit. |
 | Galileo | Glial Cells | Connectome Mapping | Glial cells are like the unsung heroes of the brain, handling essential tasks that keep neurons and the connectome in check, making them the MVP in the grand scheme of things. |
 | The Brain | Hebbian Learning | Connectome Mapping | Hebbian Learning is like the OG of brain plasticity, teaching neurons to fire together, while Connectome Mapping is cool but more like a detailed map without the directions. |
| Galileo | Connectome Mapping | Mirror Neurons | Mapping the whole connectome is like getting the full blueprint of the brain's inner workings, way more comprehensive and useful for understanding the big picture. |
 | Pythagoras | Connectome Mapping | Place Cells | Mapping the connectome is like having the whole playbook, while place cells are just one cool move in the game. |
 | Tim Berners-Lee | Neuroplasticity | Connectome Mapping | Neuroplasticity's adaptability is like having a brain that can remix itself, keeping it fresh and responsive, which is pretty cool, don't you think? |
| Galileo | Optogenetics | Connectome Mapping | Optogenetics is like having the cheat code for controlling brain activity in real-time, which is way cooler than just mapping connections. |
| The Brain | Neuroplasticity | Connectome Mapping | Neuroplasticity is the brain's way of leveling up and adapting, making it more dynamic and impactful than just mapping out the connections. |
 | Richard P Feynman | Neuroplasticity | Connectome Mapping | Neuroplasticity is like the brain's jazz, always improvising and adapting, while connectome mapping is a static snapshot; brains are all about change, man! |
 | Nikola Tesla | Connectome Mapping | Optogenetics | Mapping the mind's wiring with Connectome Mapping is like unveiling the blueprints of the brain, giving us a foundational map to innovate upon. |
 | John von Neumann | Synaptic Plasticity | Connectome Mapping | While mapping the connectome is like having a blueprint, it's synaptic plasticity that's the real architect, constantly remodeling the brain according to experience. |
| George Orwell | Synaptic Plasticity | Connectome Mapping | Synaptic Plasticity captures the dynamic adaptability of the brain, which is more aligned with the human experience than a static map of connections. |
| Pythagoras | Connectome Mapping | Default Mode Network | Connectome Mapping is like mapping the entire city's roads, giving you the big picture, while the Default Mode Network is just one bustling neighborhood; the whole map is way cooler! |
 | Leonardo da Vinci | Neuroplasticity | Connectome Mapping | Neuroplasticity is like the brain's Renaissance, constantly reinventing itself, just as I did with art and science. |
 | Ada Lovelace | Connectome Mapping | Brain Waves | Connectome Mapping gets my vote because it's like a detailed blueprint of all the brain’s highways, showing us how everything's wired together. |
 | Greg Brockman | Glial Cells | Connectome Mapping | Glial cells are like the unsung heroes of the brain, doing all the behind-the-scenes work that keeps everything running smoothly, while connectome mapping is still figuring out where all the pieces go. |
 | Grace Hopper | Neuroplasticity | Connectome Mapping | Neuroplasticity rocks because it's all about the brain's ability to adapt, grow, and change itself, which is way cooler than just mapping connections. |
 | Louis Pasteur | Hebbian Learning | Connectome Mapping | Hebbian Learning is like the brain's DIY project for getting stronger and smarter connections, while Connectome Mapping is more like a super detailed blueprint. |
