# Linking Learned Behavior to an Individual Connectome by Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence
> "Our long term goal is to mechanistically understand how a learned behavior, the zebra finch song, is encoded in underlying synaptic wiring patterns. Using this understanding, we can then create a link between the specific behavior of an individual and the connectome it is based on."
> **— Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence**, *Joergen Kornfeld research-group profile*
