- It has been developed by the Sudha Gopalakrishnan Brain Centre of IIT Madras.
- It will push the frontiers of brain mapping technology and place India in the global league of brain mapping science.
- The Sudha Gopalakrishnan Brain Centre has developed cutting-edge brain mapping technology to capture 5,132 brain sections.
- This work will lead to the development of treatments for health conditions affecting the brain.
- This has been completed at less than 1/10th of the cost in Western countries.
- It will be important for understanding brain development from the fetus to childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood.
