Brain lining, SEM
Brain lining. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the lining of the brain, showing the ciliary hairs (green) of ependymal cells. Ependymal cells are a type of neuroglia (glial cells) that line the ventricles of the brain and produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CSF has a number of functions, including buffering the brain from shock, transporting hormones around the brain and absorbing waste products. The ciliary hairs are used to help circulate the CSF. Magnification: x2000 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate beauty of the brain lining. In this false-colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are presented with a mesmerizing view of ependymal cells, a type of neuroglia that line the ventricles of the brain. These specialized cells play a crucial role in producing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which serves multiple functions within our central nervous system. The vibrant green ciliary hairs seen in the image are responsible for circulating CSF, ensuring its proper distribution throughout the brain. This circulation process is vital as CSF acts as a protective buffer against shocks, transports essential hormones across different regions of the brain, and aids in waste absorption. At a magnification level of x2000 when printed 10 centimeters wide, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the biological intricacies but also marvel at nature's design. The neural landscape depicted here showcases both scientific precision and artistic brilliance. Photographer Steve Gschmeissner has skillfully captured this momentous scene from within our own bodies. Through his lens, we gain insight into an often unseen world that holds countless mysteries waiting to be unraveled by scientists and researchers alike.
