If we can model a fly brain, and run that fly in a sim, we might do it with us. We live in the age of the brain, and ...

First complete connectome of the fruit fly central nervous system details all connections between neurons in the brain and spinal cord equivalent. The work reveals that many fruit fly behaviors are ...

FlyWire, led by Princeton University and consisting of members from 146 laboratories across 122 research institutions, is a consortium that aims to create a whole-brain connectome of the fruit fly ...

A modified machine-learning algorithm can provide a biologically plausible synaptic learning rule that reduces the complexity in sensory activity within the brain of a fruit fly Figure 1: Colored ...

A groundbreaking new connectome maps every neural connection in an adult fruit fly’s central nervous system, creating an unprecedented view of how the brain and body work together. The findings ...
