These patterns, called connectomes, are very personal, because experiences lay down more of the same sensation.

这些称为连接体的模式是非常个人化的，因为经历会产生更多相同的感觉。

Biologists have much to learn from connectomes.

生物学家可以从连接体中学到很多东西。

Several groups are currently working on mouse connectomes, bits of which have already been put together.

目前有几个小组正在研究小鼠连接组，其中的部分工作已经完成。

These natural experiments, the circuit-diagrams of which connectomes will make available, might even help human computer scientists.

这些自然实验， 即由连接组提供的电路图，甚至可能帮助人类计算机科学家。

Until now, the production of connectomes has been limited to those of simpler organisms such as the nematode worm, whose brains have hundreds of neurons and in which complex behaviour has not yet been observed.

到目前为止， 连接体的产生仅限于线虫等较简单的生物体，线虫的大脑有数百个神经元， 其复杂行为尚未被观察到。

By analogy with the Human Genome Project, where the technology became steadily cheaper as things scaled up, this would also bring down the cost to a point where smaller connectomes, like those of flies, could be mass-produced.

与人类基因组计划类似，随着规模的扩大，技术成本逐渐降低，这也会将成本降低到可以大规模生产像苍蝇那样的较小连接组的程度。
