The human brain remains one of the greatest frontiers in contemporary science, and its vastness only expands with each new breakthrough. Its mystery baffles our brightest, and its complexity is virtually incomprehensible.
Purkinjie cells, with their characteristic intricate dentritic network (many fine, branching fibers), are responsible for critical exchanges of information and molecular carriers between different layers of our brains.
Interestingly, these thresholds primarily exist between very primitive and relatively novel compartments.
Dr. Jeff Lichtman’s work at the Harvard Center for Brain Science provided the underpinnings and inspiration for this set of images. - unaffiliated
