Eden and her colleagues report on a new
structural brain imaging study that shows, in addition to deafness, early language experience — English versus ASL — impacts brain structure.

So that scientists around the world may continue to look for fundamental
structural insights, the full, interactive
imaging dataset is viewable at Mouse Connectome Project, providing a resource for researchers interested in
studying the anatomy and function of cortical networks throughout the
brain.
Still, Sheehan said neuroscience already is one of the leaders in data sharing and management, with such resources as the NIH - funded National Database for Autism Research; an NIH - Defense Department sponsored data base on traumatic
brain injury; the NIH - funded Neuroimaging Informatics Tools and Resources Clearinghouse (NITRC), which helps researchers to develop, share and collaborate on software tools for doing functional and
structural imaging studies of the
brain; and the Neuroscience Information Framework, an NIH initiative that makes neuroscience resources - data, materials, and tools - accessible via any computer connected to the Internet.
To find out, Brown and his colleagues used
structural magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) to
study the
brains of 885 children and young adults between the ages of 3 and 20.
Tobias Bonhoeffer and colleagues use two - photon microscopy, which allows
imaging to a depth of approximately half a millimeter, as one method of
studying structural changes in the
brains of living animals.
Magnetic resonance
imaging techniques, including
structural imaging (MRI), functional
imaging (fMRI), and spectroscopy (MRS), which measures
brain chemistry, are noninvasive and thus can be used both in humans and in animals to
study multiple aspects of
brain structure and function.
In 2012, our laboratory initiated a
study of AAN
structural connectivity in ex vivo human
brain specimens and in a living human subject - a
study made possible by high resolution MRI scanners and high angular resolution diffusion
