I’ve made this video as an intuition pump for the density of #synapses in the #brain. This volume ~ grain of sand, has >3.2 million synapses (orange cubes). Peeling them away leaves only inputs on 2 #neurons. Zooming in, we see the synapses localized to the dendritic spines.

The Age of Cell Therapy is here. Emily Whitehead shows you why. 🙏
Emily Whitehead became the first child to receive genetically-modified T cell to treat her leukemia. Her story helped launch @EWhiteheadFdn and the field of cellular medicine, as told in a new book, #TheSongoftheCell by the Pulitzer Prize-winning, @DrSidMukherjee.
