Image of the Month
November 2021 – Trigeminal ganglions in the zebrafish larvae are visualized using the Islet1 promoter to drive expression of DsRed in somatosensory neurons. Intricately branched touch-sensing axons – emanate from a ganglion on each side of the head to innervate the skin. The cell bodies of olfactory neurons are clustered rostrally.
