This is quite enjoyable to watch while listening to music in headphones, btw.

What the fk headline is this? Aren’t you embarrassed to share space with such disinformation as unvaccinated babies die of Pertussis in this country?

Thank you for including the important context of public funding in this story. It's something I've seen missing from a lot of the discussion.

The question is surely how this amazing wiring has come to be in such a small speck. Exactly what has made it and is making it so.

I studied neuroscience ages ago when it was just starting and left before completing my PhD (early '90s), and those images are incredible, both because of their scientific discovery and pure artistry. Congratulations!
