I'm in Vancouver, BC, for the big neuroethology conference. It's incredibly satisfying to hear people talking about real animal behaviors, especially when the animals are common model organisms. Yes, rats do interesting things, and place cells and barrel cortex are far more interesting than most people assume. My own behavior has been somewhat erratic as I managed to forget my poster in Chicago and had to make several trips to Kinko's to replace it.

Meanwhile I've gotten my first item of neuroscience spam. Just what would I do with a million neurons in some random tissue culture medium?

BrainBits LLC provides fresh (never frozen) brain tissue (Hippocampus or Cortex) from embryonic rats to you within twenty four hours at a cost of $99 for a million neurons. Broken down that is less then 10¢ per thousand neurons and this is guaranteed. The tissues you receive will come with instructions and everything you need to make cultures of primary neurons. How can we do this? The tissues are shipped in Hibernate E that will keep them alive for weeks under refrigeration. Hibernate A is also useful for the isolation of adult neurons or aid in keeping the neurons or brain tissue alive during electrophysiology or microscopy.
I believe BrainBits can help you in your research. If you are interested and want to find out more about other tissue offered or more information on our company click on to www.BrainBitsLLC.com
