A connectomics-based taxonomy of mammals

"What's in this repository?"

This repository contains code for the analysis presented in "A connectomics-based taxonomy of mammals" by Laura E. Suarez, Yossi Yovel, Martijn P. van den Heuvel, Olaf Sporns, Yaniv Assaf, Guillaume Lajoie and Bratislav Misic.

We revised previously morphologically and genetically established taxonomies from a connectomics perspective. Specifically, we investigated the extent to which inter-species differences in the organization of connectome wiring conform to these traditional taxonomies.

We've tried to document the various aspects of this repository with several README files, so feel free to jump around and check things out.
