摘要
The structure and function of the brain have long been the topic of exploration by scientists. To understand how the brain works, researchers have created the brain navigation map, i.e. brain atlases, which are still being developed and improved. In recent years, on one hand, it is possible to non-invasively delineate the structural and functional areas of the human brain and map its connectivity patterns using multimodal brain imaging, which provides a new approach to the development of the next-generation of human brain atlases. For example, the human Brainnetome atlas was developed based on the connectional architecture, which not only contains fine-grained structures of both cortical and subcortical regions but also provides a quantitative mapping of the anatomy and functional connectivity patterns. On the other hand, non-human primates have the closest evolutionary relationship with humans, especially in terms of the structure and function of the nervous system, and they are more closely related to humans than other experimental animals. At present, mapping of the non-human primate brains is incomplete and relatively preliminary, which has limited our understanding of brain structure and function. Therefore, comparative studies among primate species will help to further clarify the similarities and differences in the structure and function of the brain between non-human primates and humans. It is not only important to understand the unique cognitive functions of the human brain, but also essential for the establishment of non-human primate models of major brain diseases and the development of new techniques for diagnosis and therapy.
