Caption

This image shows a subset of more than 1,000 of the 120,000 brain cells reconstructed in the MICRONS project. Each reconstructed neuron is a different random color. It is meant as a symbolic representation of the dataset. There are far more recorded neurons than those that are glowing, and far more reconstructed neurons than were put into the rendering.
