Illuminating brain circuits in the axolotl: Viral vectors enable dynamic brain mapping

The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has extraordinary regenerative abilities—the salamander can regrow lost limbs and repair complex organs, including the retina and the brain—making the axolotl an ideal model for studying both how neural circuits form and how they regenerate after injury. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has extraordinary regenerative abilities—the salamander can regrow lost limbs and repair complex organs, including the retina and the brain—making the axolotl an ideal model for studying both how neural circuits form and how they regenerate after injury. Plants & Animals Molecular & Computational biology Phys.org – latest science and technology news stories
