- Abstract
The article discusses the use of knife-edge scanning microscope to chart out the connectome of an octopus at submicron resolution. It mentions that large portions of the subesophageal mass and the optic lobe were imaged. It concludes that the approach would contribute to the understanding of the computational architecture of invertebrates, and would provide insights on the different cognitive capabilities of invertebrates and vertebrates.
