Diagramming the brain with colorful connections
E-Mail IMAGE: In this field of brain cells, each color is a unique neuron stained for a particular snippet of RNA--or 'barcode.' This technique, called BARseq2, allows scientists to study thousands of... view more Credit: Chen and Sun/Zador lab, CSHL/2021 There are billions of neurons in the human brain, and scientists want to know how they are connected.
