A 2.5 µm adult Danionella cerebrum atlas joins BrainGlobe
- 23 September 2026
Danionella cerebrum is a small teleost fish whose brain remains optically accessible throughout adulthood. Unlike zebrafish, whose skull ossifies as they mature, Danionella lack skull ossification above the brain. This makes non-invasive, cellular-resolution imaging across the adult brain possible. This optical access is a key reason that HHMI’s Janelia Research Campus is developing a Danionella research platform.
Duke Mouse Brain Atlas has been added to BrainGlobe
- 18 August 2026
Mansour et al. (2025) introduced the Duke Mouse Brain Atlas (DMBA), a high-resolution 15 µm isotropic stereotaxic atlas of the adult mouse brain. The atlas combines magnetic resonance histology (MRH), diffusion MRI-derived contrasts, micro-CT, light sheet microscopy, and registered anatomical annotations in a common reference space.
