Inside NIF: Cell Image Library - Desktop Wallpapers!

After the success of Inside NIF: The Cell: An Image Library - mobile phone wallpapers, we have decided once again to comb The Cell: An Image Library for exciting and interesting neuroscience images for your enjoyment and download - this time as desktop wallpapers. To load the full-size image, simply click the image you like.

Check back on the first Wednesday of each month for new neuroscience images gathered from Image sources within the Neuroscience Information Framework!
