Abstract
Our minds reside in the brain. However, how the brain functions and how its diverse functions are acquired during development remain major mysteries in the life sciences. The brain contains a vast number of neurons that form intricate connections to create electrical circuits, enabling a variety of cognitive processes. Elucidating these neuronal connections should therefore help us solve these mysteries, but this has traditionally been a difficult task. In this lecture, I will introduce a technique that makes the brain transparent and uses fluorescence to study neural circuits. I will also discuss some of the principles underlying the construction of neural circuits that have been revealed using these techniques.
