C. Elegans Map Without Working Simulation
We have a perfect map of all the connections between the 302 neurons of the worm C. elegans, yet we still cannot make a simulation work because we don't understand the principles of how the components operate well enough—illustrating that connectivity maps alone are insufficient for functional simulation.
