TL;DR: BigBrain is a free, publicly available tool that provides considerable neuroanatomical insight into the human brain, thereby allowing the extraction of microscopic data for modeling and simulation, and enables testing of hypotheses on optimal path lengths between interconnected cortical regions or on spatial organization of genetic patterning.

Abstract: Reference brains are indispensable tools in human brain mapping, enabling integration of multimodal data into an anatomically realistic standard space. Available reference brains, however, are restricted to the macroscopic scale and do not provide information on the functionally important microscopic dimension. We created an ultrahigh-resolution three-dimensional (3D) model of a human brain at nearly cellular resolution of 20 micrometers, based on the reconstruction of 7404 histological sections. “BigBrain” is a free, publicly available tool that provides considerable neuroanatomical insight into the human brain, thereby allowing the extraction of microscopic data for modeling and simulation. BigBrain enables testing of hypotheses on optimal path lengths between interconnected cortical regions or on spatial organization of genetic patterning, redefining the traditional neuroanatomy maps such as those of Brodmann and von Economo.

A tension-based theory of morphogenesis and compact wiring in the central nervous system.
TL;DR: Many structural features of the mammalian central nervous system can be explained by a morphogenetic mechanism that involves mechanical tension along axons, dendrites and glial processes.

Mapping human cortical areas in vivo based on myelin content as revealed by T1- and T2-weighted MRI
TL;DR: The overall pattern in the myelin maps also has important correlations with the developmental onset of subcortical white matter myelination, evolutionary cortical areal expansion in human compared with macaques, postnatal cortical expansion in humans, and maps of neuronal density in non-human primates.

Human primary auditory cortex: cytoarchitectonic subdivisions and mapping into a spatial reference system.
TL;DR: In future, the transfer of in vivo structural and functional data into the same spatial reference system will enable accurate comparisons of cytoarchitectonic maps of the primary auditory cortex with activation centers as established with functional imaging procedures.
