OVERVIEW: Project Summary
A comprehensive understanding of how neural circuits spanning the entire brain generate the full repertoire of
perception and behaviors requires a list of brain cell types, as well the means to target each cell type in order
to interrogate the functional interactions that g

Even though scientists have been captivated by the diversity of brain cells for well over a century, since the
initial anatomical descriptions by Santiago Ramón y Cajal, it is only recently that the developments in new
technologies allowed us to truly appreciate the astonishing complexity of cell ty
