Neuronal circuits can now be seen in a multicolour 'brainbow'.
Nature webfocus: Circuits and innate behaviour
"The method - described by neuroscientists at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in today’s Nature - allows researchers to see more clearly how individual neurons connect with each other by colouring each one from a palette of about 90 shades. In this way they will be able to build up a detailed diagram of the brain's wiring, which will help to study how it computes."
