Researchers have produced the first complete wiring diagram of an adult fruit fly brain, tracing roughly 139,255 neurons and more than 50 million chemical synapses at single-synapse resolution. The ...

From a tiny sample of tissue no larger than a grain of sand, scientists have come within reach of a goal once thought unattainable: building a complete functional wiring diagram of a portion of the ...

Scientists have completed the most detailed map ever made of an adult animal brain by charting every cell and connection in a fruit fly's brain (the fly brain map is ridiculously cool-looking).

Allen Institute researchers Leila Elabbady and Clay Reid examine brain mapping data from the MICrONS project. (Allen Institute Photo) Researchers say they’ve accomplished a feat that was said to be ...

Scientists took years to map 50m connections, which may lead to understanding of how wiring gives rise to behaviour Researchers have produced the first wiring diagram for the whole brain of a fruit ...
