Article Synopsis
- The common marmoset has become increasingly popular in neuroscience research over the past 20 years, especially for studying human brain diseases, but marmoset-specific research tools are often limited and must be created within labs.
- A team has designed and tested various imaging and measurement techniques for studying marmosets, including MRI, PET, CT, and electrophysiology, and has made these designs publicly accessible to help ease the burden on researchers.
- They provide numerous computer-aided design (CAD) files, software, and resources, including tools for neuroimaging and experimental stimuli, through the Marmoset Brain Connectome website to support further advancements in marmoset neuroscience.
The reconstruction of two-dimensional (2D) slices to three-dimensional (3D) digital anatomical models requires technical skills and software that are becoming increasingly important to the modern anatomist, but these skills are rarely taught in undergraduate science classrooms. Furthermore, learning opportunities that allow students to simultaneously explore anatomy in both 2D and 3D space are increasingly valuable. This report describes a novel learning activity that trains students to digitally trace a serially imaged neuron from a confocal stack and to model that neuron in 3D space for 3D printing.
