Cover of the Journal of Neuroscience Research, Volume 101, Issue 3. The background is a fluoresence image gray/white blobs (likely cells) throughout. There are purple specks throughout the image, but they roughly overlap with the cells. A lot of the purple specks in the non-cell area overlap with orange.
