A scientific team supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) unveiled the first complete map of the neural connections of the common fruit fly brain. The map provides a wiring diagram, known ...

With maps of the connections between neurons and artificial intelligence methods, researchers can now do what they never thought possible: predict the activity of individual neurons without making a ...

Janelia scientists and collaborators have released a comprehensive wiring diagram of the fruit fly visual system. The Drosophila optic lobe connectome provides a map of the more than 50,000 neurons ...

Throughout the history of functional morphology, the brain was less forthcoming than many other organs. The brain was particularly challenging to early researchers, who often had to resort to the ...

Light enters the compound eye of the fly, causing hexagonally arranged photoreceptors to send electrical signals through a complex neural network, enabling the fly to detect motion. With maps of the ...

Researchers have uncovered novel insights into how brain function disruptions related to cerebrovascular disease (CeVD) interact with Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology to impact neurodegeneration and ...
