The nEUROn is the European fuill-scale technological demonstrator for an UCAV developed by an industrial tema led by Dassault Aviation with the collaboration of Finmeccanica-Alenia Aermacchi, Saab, Airbus Defence and Space, RUAG and HAI.
Neurons labeled by a rabies virus, Whitlock Lab
Cells in secondary motor cortex which were labeled trans-synaptically
by a rabies virus injected in posterior parietal cortex. The
glowing red cells provide monosynaptic input into parietal cortex,
constituting the front-end of the parieto-frontal pathway in the
mouse.

Fluorescence microscope image taken of mouse hippocampal cells dyed with Oregon Green 488 BAPTA-1. Neurons appear as a wiry, bright object (with the cell body illuminated) while the larger, spread out shapes are neuroglia.

I made this 3D volume rendering with the Volume Viewer ImageJ plugin. It was constructed from a 50-slice Z-stack taken @ 10micron intervals with a Zeiss LSM510 at 100X mag in oil immersion.
The degeneration of upper motor neurons – a small group of brain cells – is key to the development of ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease. Now, scientists reveal the underlying mechanism.

Encontrare neuronas golosas que paseen apoyadas en sus paraguas, los necesitaras todos. El gimoteo de las monedas atadas a tus bolsillos te darán la pauta.
Aquà te espera tranquilamente ansiosa. Desátame con la lengua.
Lupree is a Neuron with great hand-eye coordination. He is useful in holding small objects for you if you are a maker of things, or if you are just prone to losing things like I am. Lupree gets terribly excited about opera and blue popsicles. He is a manifestation of my own rebellious neurons.

Mouse cortical neurons lacking lamin B1 (an inner nuclear membrane
protein that is part of the nuclear lamina, the structural scaffold of the
cell nucleus) were imaged while expressing a nuclear-localized GFP.
Nuclear-localized GFP typically fills the nucleoplasm of a cell.
However, in neurons lacking lamin B1, we see repeated flooding of
GFP out of the nucleus, into the cytoplasm, and back into the
nucleus. We call this nuclear membrane rupture and repair. This
implies that, when missing part of its structural scaffold, the cell
nucleus displays repeated nuclear membrane rupture and repair
(where the contents of the cell nucleus leak out and then return).
Neurons were imaged over 2000 minutes.
I made this piece shortly after being diagnosed. I wanted to show neurons whose worn down myelin had healed, the deep welts overwhelmed by the new growth of healthy tissue. not so realistic, some could say, but this mental image fills me with hope and a sense of control, if for nothing more than to "heal" my mental state and perspective. The lively colors depict my attitude and positive perspective. I wish away the nagging "what ifs" and focus on the now that finds me happy and healthy.

The sheer mass and scale of this outdoor sculpture is mind-boggling. Looking closely at the many segments, large and small, it is also astounding to realize that each bend is formed by a weld, not just of the major branches, but also the very fine ones, too. Considering the sometimes severe wind and electrical storms, heavy snows or rain that visit this part of west Michigan, it is surprising that the delicate parts of the artwork have not suffered during its first decade.

While the bigger-than-life representation of the brain cells may give pause to those who are old enough to begin worrying over their own (life-sized neurons) cognitive capacities, it is not just individual neurons that constitute a person's intellectual and social and emotional structure and function, but rather it is the synapses *between* neurons that matter, as well. But for Mr. Paine to sculpt another Neuron to fit near the first one could really overwhelm mortals who visit the sculpture park.
