Discover how to use the Common Coordinate Framework.
The Common Coordinate Framework is a complete, high-resolution 3D atlas of the mouse brain meant to serve as a common reference for the neuroscience community. It enables precise co-registration of any mouse brain data from any research group onto a common 3D space and provides fine anatomical detail to the location of individual cells.
There are two main ways to explore the CCF:
