"Just as biologists succeeded in mapping the human genome, neuroscientists are attempting to map something far more complex and unique to each and every one of us. It's called our connectome—the singular wiring diagram of all our memories, thoughts, fears, and dreams. Once we understand its intricacies, how might we treat each other? Could we heal the brain of its countless torments…? Could we send one of our connectomes on a future interstellar probe, or ever hope to receive one from the being of another world?
Would that be the ultimate realization of emergence—a cosmos interconnected by a connectome of thoughts and dreams?"
