Center for Mesoscale Mapping
Brain science tools have advanced in several distinct directions. Advanced tools in molecular biology now allow neuroscientists to study distinct patterns of gene expression in individual neural cells, leading to the potential for a comprehensive atlas of cell types. In parallel, tools that allow...
