The Allen Institute for Brain Science has released the world's first anatomically and genomically comprehensive human brain map.

Scientists at University College London have developed a technique that enables them to combine information about the function of neurons together with details of their synaptic connections, finding that connection probability is related to the similarity of visually driven neuronal activity.

'Google Map' of human metabolism could pave way for new medical treatments

excellent flashed based tool much like google body browser. 

Excellent 3d brain modelling. 

"Navigate the brain in a way that was never before possible; fly through major brain pathways, compare essential circuits, zoom into a region to explore the cells that comprise it, and the functions that depend on it. The Human Connectome Project aims to provide an unparalleled compilation of neural data, an interface to graphically navigate this data and the opportunity to achieve never before realized conclusions about the living human brain."

Genome Institute of Singapore's (GIS) Associate Director of Genomic Technologies, Dr. Yijun RUAN, led a continuing study on the human genome spatial/structural configuration, revealing how genes interact/communicate and influence each other, even when they are located far away from each other. This discovery is crucial in understanding how human genes work together, and will re-write textbooks on how transcription regulation and coordination takes place in human cells.
