NeuroMorpho.Org v8.7 released October 29th, 2026

Dear colleagues,
We're pleased to announce yesterday’s release of NeuroMorpho.Org Version 8.7, with 40,417 new tracings from 131 datasets. The database currently tallies 300,495 digital reconstructions of neural morphology from 1081 independent labs worldwide. This major release also includes a new web-based data processing tool to help correct common reconstruction anomalies. Please visit the What's new and About pages for details on the growing content and features. We are continuously grateful to all data contributors eager to share their hard-won morphologies with the research community. We apologize if you receive multiple versions of this message through cross-listing, and as always appreciate any and all feedback and comments. Sincerely,


The NeuroMorpho.Org team
