Abstract:The cerebellum is the only folded cortical structure present in both rodents and humans, potentially allowing mechanistic studies across species. We trained a deep convolutional neural network to predict biological sex from midline cerebellar MRI images, and identified anterior midvermis lobules and white matter as morphological determinants of sex by heatmap backpropagation. Our comparative cross species analysis shows that in mice, like in humans, the extent of anterior vermis folding and the shapes of whit… Show more
