Mouse Brain: Micro Detail And A Video Tour

The NY Post reports on thrilling new detail of the mouse brain developed at the Allan Institute for Brain Science.  This is the twenty first century we were promised.  Also, a video.
"An average of the inherent fluorescence in the
   brains of mice imaged using serial
         two-photon tomography"



"The Allen Mouse Brain Common Coordinate Framework 
(CCFv3), a 3D reference atlas"








Text for the video: “This video depicts a fusion of data in the CCF frameworkThe background grayscale image represents the average anatomy of 1675 individual specimens forming the basis for the common coordinate system.The colored curved lines represented sampled streamlines. The mouse cortex is a 3D sheet organized into layers where connection between the layers are typically perpendicular to the surface, suggesting a hypothetical columnar organization.”
