Atlas of the Prenatal Mouse Brain

Aims to provide a comprehensive atlas of the developing mouse brain for use in studies of both normal and abnormal development. Photomicrographs of brain sections are depicted in sagittal, coronal and horizontal planes for four gestational age groups.

The "Atlas of the Prenatal Mouse Brain" is the latest addition to Academic Press' list of atlases for neuroscientists and neuroscience students. It seeks to fill an urgent need for a comprehensive atlas of the developing mouse brain for use in studies of both normal and abnormal development. High-quality photomicrographs of brain sections are depicted in sagittal; coronal, and horizontal planes for four gestational age groups. Each photomicrograph is accompanied by a fully labelled, precision-drawn diagram for easy identification of brain structures. Researchers and students using normal, transgenic, or mutant mouse preparations in developmental neurobiology, neurotoxicology, and biotechnology may find this a useful guide.
