Yes, this was published in Science, March 30 2012. There is another article at http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/03/120329141920.htm You don't believe NIH? I not only believe it but I would be surprised if it were any other way. It is not clear, though, what exactly those cables represent. Single axons? Cables made of millions of axons? How do they connect to the neurons? How many of those cables are shown in the pictures? I note that the author said: "We still know almost nothing about how the brain’s structure translates into its incredibly complex and powerful functionality."
