An Atlas for the non-human primate Microcebus murinus (grey mouse lemur) has been added to BrainGlobe

Nadkarni et al. made the first publicly available mouse lemur atlas in 2018. They imaged mouse lemur brains with MRI at 91μm resolution. Thanks to Harry Carey (University of Oslo) it is now accessible from BrainGlobe. In reference to its original authors, the atlas is named nadkarni_mri_mouselemur_91um in the BrainGlobe ecosystem.
