Platinum replica illustrating the cytoskeletal organization of dendritic spines from extracted 14 DIV neurons. Thin spines associate with dendrites at the base (bottom) and with axons by the head (top...

Electron micrograph of a nerve from the mesentery of a rat shows groups of unmyelinated axons wrapped by deeply invaginating Schwann cells in cross section. Surrounding the Schwann cell wrapping is a ...

A single image from animation of the computed slices through a tomographic volume of mitochondria at the Node of Ranvier in rat peripheral nerve root. This image has been downsampled from the raw dat...

Human spinal cord neurosphere (a culture system composed of free-floating clusters of neural stem cells) captured with widefield Illumination and deconvolution. Honorable Mention, 2005 Olympus BioScap...

The inner segment of photoreceptors in the retina is packed with long, thin mitochondria that contain curved cristae. This image by Toichiro Kuwabara is of a photoreceptor from human retina, and appe...

Confocal micrograph of neural stem cells transplanted into mouse brain Mouse neural stem cells, labelled with green fluorescent protein, have been transplanted into the brain of a newborn mouse and ar...

Fluorescent micrograph of differentiating mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, meaning that they have the ability to differentiate into any cell type depending on th...

Single tilt image (zero degree tilt) of a mitochondrion from a retinal rod photoreceptor of a female mouse (C57BL/6) from a 0.3 um section. This image has been downsampled from the raw data image whic...

Platinum replica depicting the cytoskeletal organization of dendritic spines in extracted 14 DIV neurons. Mushroom spines associate with dendrites at the base (bottom) and with axons by the head (top)...

Platinum replica depicting the cytoskeletal organization of dendritic spines in extracted 14 DIV neurons. This image shows the interaction of putative PSD from the spine head with axonal intermediate ...
