Wow, wow, wow.

Lovely work from Shigeki’s lab demonstrating morphological features of axons which have been a matter of some debate that are going to be important for modeling and understanding neuronal homeostasis and function.

Excited to share our latest findings, now published @NatureNeuro www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We found unmyelinated axons exhibit pearls-on-a-string morphology's due to their membrane mechanical properties.

Threads will follow!
