Scientists Share Mind-Boggling Insights About Human Memory by Mapping Fly Brains
A 10-year project produces both brain wiring diagram and a "parts list" — paving the way for greater understanding of human brain.
Scientists Unveil the First-Ever Complete Map of an Adult Fruit Fly's Brain, Captured in Stunning Detail
In 2013, neuroscientist Davi Bock and his team at the at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus dipped an adult female fruit fly brain into a hardening chemical solution. By 2018,
Largest Brain Map Ever Reveals Fruit Fly’s Neurons in Exquisite Detail
Seung and Murthy say that they’ve been developing the FlyWire map for more than four years, using electron microscopy images of slices of the fly’s brain. The researchers and their colleagues stitched the data together to form a full map of the brain with the help of artificial-intelligence (AI) tools.
Intricate map of tiny fruit fly brain marks major neuroscience milestone
Scientists mapped the fruit fly brain’s more than 50 million connections, a step in aiding future human brain research.
Groundbreaking Brain Map Reveals Fruit Fly Brain in Stunning Detail
The approach used to make the map—which heavily relied on artificial intelligence—could chart more complex brains, such as zebrafish, mice, and even humans.
Scientists mapped every neuron of an adult animal’s brain for the first time
Brains are bewilderingly complicated systems of connections between neurons. Mapping those connections is an important step in understanding how brains work. Scientists have recently completed the most ambitious effort yet to construct such a map: a complete document of every neuron and every connection in the brain of an adult fruit fly.
Mapping an entire (fly) brain: A step toward understanding diseases of the human brain
An international team of researchers and gamers, led by Princeton’s Mala Murthy and Sebastian Seung, mapped every neuron and every synaptic connection in an adult fruit fly's brain, building a comprehensive “connectome” that represents a massive step toward understanding the human brain.
After a Decade, Scientists Unveil Fly Brain in Stunning Detail
Scientists have mapped out how 140,000 neurons are wired in the brain of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster.
