TT - N2 - G20 World Brain Mapping Initiative (Neuroscience/N-20) is Putting Brain Mapping on the top of Global Economic Issues The Society for Brain Mapping, Therapeutics, and Brain Mapping Foundation are propelling therapeutic advances in Nano-Neurosurgery, Nano-Bio-Electronics, Artificial Intelligence, Neuro-Supercomputing and ‘cross-pollination’ among the bio-medical sciences and engineering worldwide. “Think of Brain Mapping as a google map, the snapshot of earth being equivalent of the MRI. Now zoom down to the cities, which represents a Functional MRI, then zoom on the roads, which represent brain connectomics. If you zoom down further, you will see the cars, which represent brain cells and people in the car represent brain genomics and nanoscale structures” explains Dr. Babak Kateb, Founding Chairman of the Board of SBMT, Scientific Director of California Neurosurgical Institute.
