Title: | The vertebrate habenula | Authors: | Jesuthasan, Suresh | Keywords: | Science::Medicine | Issue Date: | 2018 | Source: | Jesuthasan, S. (2018). The vertebrate habenula. Seminars in cell & developmental biology, 78, 102. doi:10.1016/j.semcdb.2017.10.015 | Journal: | Seminars in cell & developmental biology | Abstract: | A renowned neuroscientist, now retired from Cambridge University, once told me that he had been a graduate student in North America when he first came across the term “habenula”. For him and his course mates, the habenula provided a source of humor. Nobody knew what it did, but the word sounded unusual and provoked a lot of laughter. The anatomy of habenula neurons, with their unusual terminations of loops and spirals at the midline, was a source of wonderment. There was nothing else like it in the vertebrate brain. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/139824 | ISSN: | 1084-9521 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.semcdb.2017.10.015 | Schools: | Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) | Rights: | © 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
