Neural circuits can be reconstructed from brain images acquired by serial section electron microscopy. Image analysis has been performed by manual labor for half a century, and efforts at automation date back almost as far.

Robust Nucleus Detection With Partially Labeled Exemplars
Quantitative analysis of cell nuclei in microscopic images is an essential yet challenging source of biological and pathological information. The major challenge is accurate detection and segmentation of densely packed nuclei in images acquired under a ...

Connectomics is an important field of neuroscience that examines how neurons are connected and form functional circuits that underly the brain's functions. Conventional tracers based on dye have led to great advances in mapping these connections, and now,

A connectomic approach to the lateral geniculate nucleus [PDF]
Although the core functions and structure of the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) are well understood, this core is surrounded by questions about the integration of feedforward and feedback connections, interactions between different channels of ...

Connecting Connectomes to Physiology
With the advent of volumetric EM techniques, large connectomic datasets are being created, providing neuroscience researchers with knowledge about the full connectivity of neural circuits under study. This allows for numerical simulation of detailed, biophysical models of each neuron participating in the circuit. However, these models typically include

Long term depression (LTD) of the cerebellum is known to be mediated by postsynaptic trafficking of glutamate receptor AMPAR. Here, Kim and colleagues show that early- to late-endosomal sorting of AMPAR represents the switch from expression to ...

The labeling and identification of long-range axonal inputs from multiple sources within densely reconstructed electron microscopy (EM) datasets from mammalian brains has been notoriously difficult because of the limited color label space of EM. Here, we

Place cells are more strongly tied to landmarks in deep than in superficial CA1
Environmental cues affect the way mouse hippocampal place cells respond, but whether this information is integrated versus segregated in distinct hippocampal cell populations is unclear.
