"Brain morphology" refers to the study and description of the shape, size, and structure of the brain. It focuses on understanding how different brain areas and features are organized and interconnected.

Six month after this test phase, individual fish brains were measured to investigate the long term consequences of early group size
on brain morphology, revealing differences in brain architecture.

on brain morphology and function.
To capture changes in brain development, imaging technology is being used, which provides a non-invasive way to examine differences
in brain morphology and physiology.
After the final stressors were administered, the researchers gave the young mice a round of behavioral tests and then waited until the mice reached adulthood, at about 10 weeks old, to see if their different upbringings had affected their cognitive abilities or
brain morphology.
The core facility is a two - photon in vivo imaging platform developed at the Nonlinear bioimaging laboratory, a technique that allows for non-invasive structural and functional measurements in small animal models at different scales: from macroscopic imaging of
the brain morphology to highly resolved microscopy of neuron populations, single neurons, and even subcellular structures.
ADHD and depression share few if any similarities in
brain morphology and function.
