Fine Art Print : Cerebellum structure, light micrograph
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Cerebellum structure, light micrograph
Cerebellum structure. Fluorescent light micrograph of a section through the cerebellum of the brain. The cerebellum comprises three main layers. The outer grey matter (cortex) comprises the molecular layer (green) and the granular layer (blue). The molecular layer is largely made up of the highly branched dendrites of Purkinje nerve cells (green), the large round bodies of which are found at the junction between the molecular and granular layers. Within the grey matter is the white matter (red), largely made up of the axons of the grey matters nerve cells. The cerebellum is involved in motor control, sensory perception and learning. Magnification: x20 when printed 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of the cerebellum, a vital part of the brain responsible for motor control, sensory perception, and learning. The image, captured using fluorescent light microscopy, reveals the complexity and beauty of this anatomical wonder. The cerebellum is composed of three main layers that can be distinguished in this micrograph. The outermost layer, known as the cortex or grey matter, consists of two distinct regions: the molecular layer (depicted in vibrant green) and the granular layer (displayed in striking blue). Within these layers lies an abundance of Purkinje nerve cells whose highly branched dendrites are represented by vivid green structures. These unique cells have round bodies located at the junction between the molecular and granular layers. Delving deeper into this mesmerizing composition reveals another crucial component: white matter depicted in intense red hues. Composed primarily of axons originating from nerve cells within grey matter areas, white matter plays a significant role in transmitting signals throughout different parts of our nervous system. This remarkable photograph not only captures scientific excellence but also serves as a testament to nature's artistry. Its detailed portrayal invites us to marvel at both its biological significance and aesthetic appeal.
