Abstract
The essential details of cellular interactions at synaptic level in the brain are still largely unknown. In this issue, Kasthuri et al. report new experimental and computational technologies for large-scale electron microscopy data collection and analysis, and through saturated reconstruction uncover synaptic connectional specificity that cannot be predicted by simple axonal-dendritic proximity.
