The mouse cortex and striatum. PV interneurons are stained green and cholinergic interneurons are stained red.

Coronal section through the mouse embryonic cortex and striatum. TBR1 (green) marks cortical layer 6, CTIP2 in red  marks cortical layer 5, and Satb2 in white marks layers 2-4.

Brain section from a Drd1-Cre:Ai14 mouse detailing striatal (str) projections to the substantia nigra (Sn). Th=thalamus

Picture
Computed Tomography scans of a normal mouse (left) and affected littermates who have craniosynostosis due to  heterozygous loss of Twist1 in the cranial sutures. Red arrows denote coronal suture fusion, which can be present unilaterally or bilaterally.

Picture
Coronal section through an adult mouse brain. FITC-conjugated dextran is seen entering the brain through perivascular spaces following injection via the cisterna magna. This process is essential for waste clearance  in the CNS.
Picture
Time lapse imaging of cerebrospinal fluid circulation in an adult mouse using live transcranial imaging. Two different sized molecular tracers were injected into the cerebral spinal fluid. Tracking the tracers over time allows us to measure the velocity.

Top-down dorsal view of an embryonic day 12.5 mouse brain, with the primitive venous sinuses and venous capillaries labeled with endomucin. The mature venous sinuses arise from skull-induced venous growth and remodeling at this stage.
