Fluorescence image of a neuronal culture created by stitching together six images collected at 40x magnification. Honorable Mention, 2011 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition®.

This electron micrograph is a cross section through a portion of an axon and its associated myelin wrap from the cochlear nerve of the cat. This high magnification view showcases the regular periodic...

Image mosaic of a section through mouse cerebellum showing the distribution of alpha synuclein (green) in a transgenic mouse overexpressing alpha synuclein. The section was counterstained with a nucl...

Single image from a serial section electron microscopic reconstruction of the cell body of a cortical pyramidal neuron from a biopsy sample obtained from the cortex of a patient with Alzheimer's dise...

Single image from a serial section electron microscopic reconstruction of the cell body of a cortical pyramidal neuron from a biopsy sample obtained from the cortex of a patient with Alzheimer's dise...

We examined the structural organization of cytoskeletal components and membrane systems in neurons of well preserved biopsy material from Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Information was obtained from thin...

Schwann cells in peripheral nerves secrete a layer similar to the basal lamina called the lamina externa, boundary layer, or basement membrane. In this micrograph, the lamina externa surrounds the Sc...

Figure 398 from Chapter 15 (Cytoplasmic Inclusions) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Excitatory synapses on dendritic spines of a Purkinje cell from the rat cerebellum. Axon terminals f...

A portion of dendrite and associated spines from a Purkinje neuron of the rat cerebellum. This image is a maximum intensity projection through a computationally deblurred transmitted light series of ...
