Ellipsoid body ring neurons

One representative neuron per subtype, registered to the JRC2018U template and rendered from the male CNS connectome (Berg et al., 2025). The ring is the closed or partial loop of arborisations circling the ellipsoid body canal. Click any panel to open it in the VFB 3D viewer.
