Rat Brain Stereotaxic Atlas

Author: Zhuge Qichuan
Publisher:
Publishing Date: 2005-07-01
Features: The rat has become the most commonly used experimental animal in neuroscience research due to its appropriate size, strong reproductive capacity, and cost-effectiveness. However, there has been no rat brain anatomy atlas available in China until now. The The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates——Compact Third Edition compiled by Professor Paxinos of the University of New South Wales, Australia, has already been published. It is our honor that in 2002, when Professor Paxinos visited Wenzhou Medical University, he gifted this book to Professor Qu Jia and hoped it would be translated into Chinese for publication. This book is currently the most detailed anatomical atlas describing rat brain structures, providing 78 exquisite and precisely located stereotaxic anatomical diagrams, which offer very useful materials for the localization, anatomy, and function of brain tissue structures required in many neuroscience research studies.
