ASCB is an inclusive, international community of biologists studying the cell, the fundamental unit of life.
Today, via research, education, and professional development activities, AAA serves as the professional home for an international community of biomedical researchers and educators focusing on the structural foundation of health and disease.
The International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA) was initially formed to “lead the anatomical societies of the world and to organize congresses, during which scientific findings and views of common interest could be exchanged”.
This brain cell database contains a survey of biological features derived from single cell data, from both human and mouse. It is part of a multi-year project to create a census of cells in the mammalian brain. The database contains electrophysiological, morphological, and transcriptomic data measured from individual cells, as well as models simulating cell activity.
The Allen Human Brain Atlas is a unique multimodal atlas of the human brain, integrating anatomic and genomic information.
Use your touch screen to rotate and zoom around 29 interactive structures. Each detailed structure comes with information on functions, disorders, brain damage, case studies, and links to modern research.
The Anatomy and Physiology module introduces the structure and function of the human body. You will read about the cells, tissues and membranes that make up our bodies and how our major systems function to help us develop and stay healthy
