Connectome

A connectome is like a big map of all the different parts of your brain and how they work together. Think of your brain like a city and the connectome is like a map of all the streets and buildings and how they are connected. Just like how a city needs roads to connect different neighborhoods and buildings, your brain has neural pathways that connect different regions and help them communicate. Scientists use fancy technology to study these pathways and make a map of all the connections in your brain. Understanding the connectome can help us understand how different parts of our brain work together to do things like think and feel.
