Amphibians have long captivated human’s interest. An unusual amphibian amongst these is the Axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), which is sometimes used as a model organism for regeneration. In 2021, Lazcano et al. created a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) atlas of the juvenile axolotl brain. The axolotl atlas enables researchers to gain better insights into the processes underlying central nervous system (CNS) regeneration.
