Expansion Light Sheet Microscopy Resolves Subcellular Structures in Large Portions of the Songbird Brain.

abstract：:The auditory system contains a diverse array of interconnected anatomical structures that mediate the perception of sound. The cochlear nucleus of the hindbrain serves as the initial site of convergence for auditory stimuli, while the inferior colliculus of the midbrain serves as an integration and relay station for a...
