This is much more feasible in optical approaches, but not entirely inconceivable even in electron microscope approaches to scanning: https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.00075

This paper is also cool: https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.04793

I think that is a key enabler. We need to be able get both neural firing properties and the scan for a lot of neurons to train a ML system to predict them. Same for the synaptic properties. Once that is done can start hunting for major discrepances in predictions.

Yes, you need a lot of data on particular types of cells, both on their firing patterns when alive and how that relates to what they look like dead in a scan.
