Infants exposed to the Zika virus during pregnancy may face hidden developmental challenges, even if they appear healthy at birth. A recent study at #UWMadison highlights the need for better developmental screening during a child’s first year of life.

Reminder: Join us for "Inside Out - Art of Medical Illustration", a fascinating exhibition of medical illustrations that showcase a wide range of artistic techniques. From detailed historical renderings to contemporary approaches, the works on view highlight the intersection of art, science, and visual storytelling.

The exhibition will be on view from June 18 through September 30, 2026. Celebrate the opening with us at a reception on June 18 from 4:30–6:30 p.m., where free Babcock Ice Cream will be served. Special thanks to the following campus partners: @uwmadarchives, @eblinglibrary, @uwmadlibraries, SMPH Media Solutions.

Neurons don't connect randomly.

In this video by our #ElectronMicroscopy team, a blue neuron's axon forms a connection to a far neuron. Along the way, it links to some neighbors while skipping thousands. Connectomics seeks to understand what makes those connections special.
