Neuroscience Display

If you are on the Jupiter Campus of Florida Atlantic University , come by the library to see a really interesting display from Dr. Brenda Claiborne and her student assistant Liza Lanzon. The display is entitled, From 2D Drawings to 3D Computer Analyses of Neuron Structure.

Dr. Caliborne's interests are focused on the relationship between the structure and function of individual neurons in the mammalian brain, particularly during development and normal aging. The collaborative display shows past draswings done in the lab using a camera lucida., an optical device that aids in drawing. Technology has advanced and now photomicrography is more common. 

The work will be on exhibtion throught the end of this semester.
