Our featured image shows the full morphology of Relaxin-3 neurons in an entire adult mouse brain. To observe the full depth of this brain, it was made transparent by applying an optical clearing technique called Adipoclear. The sample was observed on an Ultramicroscope II light sheet microscope and is a maximum intensity projection over the
