Outline of brain mapping

"Human Brain Mapping" redirects here. For the scientific journal, see Human Brain Mapping (journal).

The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to brain mapping:

Brain mapping set of neuroscience techniques predicated on the mapping of (biological) quantities or properties onto spatial representations of the (human or non-human) brain resulting in maps. Brain mapping is further defined as the study of the anatomy and function of the brain and spinal cord through the use of imaging (including intra-operative, microscopic, endoscopic and multi-modality imaging), immunohistochemistry, molecular & optogenetics, stem cell and cellular biology, engineering (material, electrical and biomedical), neurophysiology and nanotechnology.
