Neurons
So I recently learned about some very cool things. First off, there is a site out there that catalogs neurons http://neuromorpho.org/ It’s great, you can browse them by brain region, by species, by cell type, and pull up and view a vast assortment of known neurons. So that’s pretty awesome on it’s own. But I was lucky enough to learn about this site in connection with the work of Nick Woolridge, who has been writing code to make the data found there importable into Cinema 4D or ZBrush. This is his video on Vimeo explaining the process of using this data in Cinema 4D and where to find his script.
Using the NeuronBuild C4D script from Biomedical Communications on Vimeo.
Some of the larger neurons can bog down the computer, but I had good luck trying it myself, and I’m really excited about having this available.
