Caption

Green staining indicates myelination in these mouse brain cross sections. The brain that received 40Hz light and sound stimulation (right) shows significantly more myelin in four brain regions (insets): the cortex (CTX), the anterior commissure (AC), the corpus callosum (CC), and the striatum (STR) than in mice who did not receive 40Hz stimulation.
