In response to the growing interest in the prosimian Microcebus murinus for studies on
cerebral aging, the stereotaxic atlas of its brain was carried out in view of further anatomical,
biochemical, electrophysiological, and behavioral investigations as well as for therapeutic
experiments. This primate, which could be a valuable model for neuroscientific studies in
various domains, presents numerous physiological advantages (eg, size, cost, and ability to
breed) compared to rodents, which can be used as nonprimate models, and simians. The …
