A stunning image that truly captures the complexity and beauty of our own neurobiology!
EYE CATCHING and THOUGHT PROVOKING! Sarah Murphy's image, Morphological Masterpiece, of human choroid plexus brain tissue is a small example of the morphological intricacies that the choroid plexus presents. The image displays a stain consisting of 6 different markers and a nuclear stain. The vessels of the choroid plexus show elongated nuclei, creating an appearance like flowing water. The dendrite branching of the neuronal cells, also seen in this image, show a similar display of flow. Take a moment and consider how information is likely being passed between these cells, following the flow of its morphology. INCREDIBLE. VOTE NOW for #ArtoftheBrain Image #22 Most 🧡💛♥️s wins!
