Google Research introduces MoGen, a model that generates synthetic neuron shapes to improve AI reconstruction models for brain mapping, reducing reconstruction errors by 4.4%.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://research.google/blog/ai-generated-synthetic-neurons-speed-up-brain-mapping/:

> Our new paper “MoGen: Detailed neuronal morphology generation via point cloud flow matching”, to be presented at ICLR 2026, uses synthetic neural shapes to improve AI reconstruction models.
