This work was generously supported by a seed fund grant from Sussex Neuroscience (SNSF-24/1), as well as funding from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC/BB/V000233/1) and Leverhulme Trust (RPG-2024-041). Visits to the Diamond Light Source National Synchrotron facility were funded by grant MG34473 (Diamond). We gratefully acknowledge WEBKNOSSOS, the excellent open-source tool that was used for annotating 3D image stacks and generating 3D meshes (Boergens et al. 2017). The information in this atlas represents the efforts of many researchers who have studied the Lymnaea CNS over the last seven decades. We have tried to capture their contributions in our reference lists, but if we have overlooked specific works, please let us know at snailbrainmap@gmail.com and we will gladly update.
