Researchers at INM‑1 have developed a new method to visualize the fine structure of the brain without elaborate laboratory procedures. With the help of artificial intelligence (AI), they can now virtually show how nerve cells are distributed and how they connect with nerve fibers. The study was published in Imaging Neuroscience.

A special mark of distinction: As the successor to the late Prof. Karl Zilles, Prof. Katrin Amunts, together with Prof. Marco Catani, is responsible for the chapter on the "Cerebral hemispheres" in "Gray’s Anatomy". The 43rd edition of this standard reference work on human anatomy, first published in 1858, has just been released.

An international team of researchers has successfully applied the recently developed imaging technique ComSLI (Computational Scattered Light Imaging) to brain sections prepared using a wide range of methods, enabling the visualization of the brain’s complex fiber network with micrometer precision. Their findings have now been published in the prestigious journal Nature Communications.
