[*The Transmitter* featured the newest Bulletin of the MCZ, about our R. Glenn Northcutt Collection of Comparative Vertebrate Neuroanatomy and Embryology](https://www.thetransmitter.org/evolution/digitization-of-breathtaking-neuroanatomy-slide-collection-offers-untapped-research-gold-mine/).

A comprehensive inventory of the entire collection appears in a paper by Hanken and his colleagues published last week in the *Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology*. It provides researchers with an in-depth guide for using the collection, Hanken says.
