Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas
The Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas is a high-resolution map of neural connections in the mouse brain. Built on an array of transgenic mice genetically engineered to target specific cell types, the Atlas comprises a unique compendium of projections from selected neuronal populations throughout the brain.
Key features:
  • Projection Mapping image data detailing axonal projections labeled by viral tracers
    • Specific anatomic regions throughout the brain
    • Numerous defined neuronal populations
    • Stacks of two-dimensional images obtained by serial two-photon tomography

  • BDA vs. AAV for direct comparison of data derived from both conventional and viral tracing method
  • Transgenic Characterization data detailing transgene expression in Cre or other driver lines
    • Adult and developing brain
    • Colorimetric in situ hybridization
    • Fluorescent in situ hybridization
    • Other histological methods
  • Anatomic Reference
    • Histology
    • Immunohistochemistry
