New Hippocampus Map Shows Structures and Functions in Great Detail

Scientists at the University of California say they have created a map of the hippocampus using fluorescent tracers and 3-D animation that show structures, nerve connections, and functions in vivid detail. Their study ( “Integration of gene expression and brain-wide connectivity reveals the multiscale organization of mouse hippocampal networks ”) appears in  Nature Neuroscience .“Understanding the organization of the hippocampus is fundamental to understanding brain f
