Serial EM 3D Electron microscopy (serial sections) of the brain Large datasets terabytes High resolution: ~5 nm X-Y, 50 nm Z (10 5 x10 5x 10 4 x voxels) Large volumes: up to 500  m cubes The goal, to solve the wiring diagram for a complete brain circuit. Potentially intractable computationally unless we proceed hierarchically: Start with the large, dominant pathways: The biggest wires and the biggest excitatory connections. Use this as scaffolding to then solve other pathways: inhibition, lateral connections, feedback.

40,000x40,000 pixels 1.6 GB 120x120  m (3 nm/pixel) Here shown 40x undersampled or 1/1600 th of the data in a single section. The goal, 10,000 such sections making up a 3D volume Reconstruct the big axons first: the “wires” Then find the big synapses: the connections Then zoom in 6 15mu EM big view (Davi Bock and Clay Reid)

5 8mu rlp And zoom in Find the presynaptic terminals

4 3mu rlp And zoom in

3 1mu rlp And zoom in

2 300 nm rlp Until you identify a synapse (one connection out of many thousand in the circuit) Zoomed in ~40x, or 1/1600 th of the total field of view. Displayed at native resolution.
