The word blends connectome with the suffix -ian. In current scientific usage, individuals who study these networks are more commonly described as connectomics researchers, connectomicists, or members of the connectomics community; connectomian appears occasionally in discussions as a descriptive label.
Origins and scope: The term grew with advances in connectomics, a field aiming to chart brain networks
Methods and challenges: Research in this area uses imaging technologies such as electron microscopy, serial block-face
Related terms and context: The designation is not widely standardized, and some sources prefer connectomicist or
