Three plates lead the edition
A plate is one cell, drawn to scale. The cyan bracket sits on the single synapse being measured, and nothing else gets colour.
Pyramidal cell
Layer V, cross-section A to A. The dendrite arbor in graphite hairlines, with one terminal under the probe.
Axon trace
One fibre carried across the plate, myelin segments ticked along its length.
Erased region
Rubbed back to bone. The dashed boundary records what was once measured here.
One plate, every reading
The atlas plate holds the cell under probe and the numbers that go with it: where it sits, how strong its link is, and the level at which it fires.

Every plate, its proof
Each row is a filed specimen: where it sits, how strong its link was when proofed, and whether that link still reaches the firing level of 1.00.
