## Definition
**Neural mapping** comprises methods for representing the brain’s cells, connections, activity and functional organization across spatial and temporal scales.
## Continuity Context
Maps can improve diagnosis, modeling and reconstruction, but representational completeness is not automatically personal continuity. A map may describe a system without reproducing its ongoing causal history, embodiment or subjective point of view.
