# NIH BRAIN CONNECTS **Entity class:** Technology, concept, place, event, or ecosystem entity **Collections:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] · [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] **Relationship source:** [[research/Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph - 2026-09-10|Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph — 2026-09-10]] ## Definition **NIH BRAIN CONNECTS** is represented in the supplied consciousness-mapping and transfer relationship graph through the source-qualified relationships below. The entry preserves direction, predicate, evidence key, quantitative context, and epistemic status without treating analogy, adjacency, shared physics, or technical convergence as proof of ownership, funding, program lineage, technology transfer, operational integration, or institutional control. <!-- BEGIN CONSCIOUSNESS MAPPING TRANSFER RELATIONSHIP GRAPH 2026-09-10 --> ## Relationships ### Consciousness mapping and transfer graph patch — 2026-09-10 **Collections:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] · [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] **Relationship source:** [[research/Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph - 2026-09-10|Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph — 2026-09-10]] **Related source articles:** [[articles/Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer|Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer]] · [[articles/The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards|The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards]] · [[articles/2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces|2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces]] · [[articles/The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas|The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas]] #### Outgoing typed edges - **Edge 352 — `goal` → whole-brain wiring diagrams across mouse, human, and non-human primate scales** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `BRAIN_CONNECTS_DCC`. - **Edge 353 — `center_PI` → [[wiki/Jeff Lichtman|Jeff Lichtman]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `BRAIN_CONNECTS_AWARDS`. Harvard high-throughput integrative mouse connectomics center. - **Edge 354 — `center_PI` → [[wiki/Forrest Collman|Forrest Collman]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `BRAIN_CONNECTS_AWARDS`. Allen Institute whole-mouse EM pipeline center. - **Edge 355 — `center_PI` → [[wiki/Nuno da Costa|Nuno da Costa]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `BRAIN_CONNECTS_AWARDS`. Allen Institute whole-mouse EM pipeline center. #### Incoming typed edges - **Edge 351 — [[wiki/Allen Institute Connectomics|Allen Institute Connectomics]] `program` → this entry** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `ALLEN_CONNECT`, `BRAIN_CONNECTS_AWARDS`. Scaling toward whole-mouse synaptic connectivity. #### Epistemic boundary Primary-source, peer-reviewed, company-claim, preprint, analytic, inherited-corpus, dynamic-metric, source-version-conflict, and unresolved states remain distinct. A current primary source supersedes a stale uncertainty label without erasing the correction history. No edge establishes ownership, funding, licensing, program lineage, technology transfer, operational integration, or institutional control unless its predicate and evidence explicitly do so. <!-- END CONSCIOUSNESS MAPPING TRANSFER RELATIONSHIP GRAPH 2026-09-10 -->
