Jul 29, 2022 · More recently, a T1- and T2-weighted high-resolution MRI 3D stereotaxic atlas of the sheep brain has been generated, however, the journey to create a sheep brain atlas by which to map directly to the human brain is still uncharted.
Division of Integrative Biology and Neuroscience. With much assistance from our many collaborators. A free online atlas of the sheep brain.
1. List and describe the principal structures of the sheep brain. 2. Identify important parts of the sheep brain in a preserved specimen. Materials: Dissection tools and trays, lab glasses, lab gloves, preserved specimen. External Sheep Brain : The sheep brain is quite similar to the human brain except for proportion.
The sheep spinal cord is orientated anterior to posterior, as in any four-legged animal. The human spinal cord is orientated superior to inferior. This orientation difference has a major affect on the location of the brain stem. The sheep brain stem is located more towards the rear (posteriorly).
Oct 15, 2006 · Most structures in the sheep brain are highly homologous to structures in the brains of other placental mammals, including humans. Only cortical structures, particularly sulci and gyri, which are not always homologous across mammalian orders, differ markedly between humans and sheep.

Be sure you clearly understand the following terms of orientation in reference to the central nervous system: dorsal, ventral, anterior, posterior, superior, inferior, proximal, distal, lateral, medial, rostral, caudal, cranial.
SHEEP BRAIN DISSECTION GUIDE. This guide is roughly organized in anatomical order from rostral to caudal, though this will not necessarily be the order you will follow during your dissection. Please read it carefully before you arrive at lab to do your sheep brain dissection.
