An Update on the Model of Connectivity of the Hippocampal Formation (I): The Perforant Pathway to the Dentate Gyrus. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The hippocampus participates in crucial functions such as memory consolidation, spatial processing and emotional regulation that require diverse input from multiple cortical areas that is funneled through the upper layers of the entorhinal cortex (EC), mostly from layer II to the dentate gyrus (DG).

Introduction to Stereology [PDF]
Just as astrology became astronomy and alchemy became chemistry through the application of mathematics, descriptive anatomy can be expected to become more and more quantitative in nature. This article describes the basics of stereology, which provides meaningful quantitative descriptions of the geometry of three-dimensional (3D) structures from ...

Getting Started in Stereology [PDF]
Stereology involves sampling structural features in sections of tissue with geometrical probes. This article discusses some practical issues that must be dealt with when getting started in stereology, including tissue preparation methods and determining how many tissue sections and probes are needed to make a stereological estimate.

Sampling for stereology in lungs
The present article reviews the relevant stereological estimators for obtaining reliable quantitative structural data from the lungs. Stereological sampling achieves reliable, quantitative information either about the whole lung or complete lobes, whilst
