Brain of fly to shed light on human thought process bbc.in/4ePnhPc

One discussion #onhere (sometimes healthy, often not) is what is the point of these big resources? The FlyWire issue also has papers that *use* the resource. These papers represent significant discoveries and also illustrate how the resource is likely to be used in the future 🧵

If you are interested in an overview of the special issue, you can start with this feature, written by me with amazing graphics from our team as well as the FlyWire team (let's be real, you should go for the cool graphics and reconstructed neurons) nature.com/immersive/d428…

An astonishing *seven* open access papers in @nature tonight describing the structure and function of the Drosophila brain and its 140,000 neurons. Amazing work by dozens of researchers in the FlyWire consortium. Congratulations all! nature.com/nature/volumes…

Nature research paper: Neuronal wiring diagram of an adult brain FlyWire presents a neuronal wiring diagram of the whole fly brain with annotations for cell types, classes, nerves, hemilineages and predicted neurotransmitters go.nature.com/3YaEqw3

Thrilled that our papers mapping and analyzing the connectome of the complete brain adult fruit fly, including our work with "Tony" Runzhe Yang characterizing the network properties of the brain, have been published at nature!

Volume EM baby! Making waves in the actual proper news! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Some of the Zetta team members produced this automatic reconstruction over 5 years ago. Thanks to FlyWire and collaborators for all the edits and annotations that polished this into a scientific masterpiece!

Huge congratulations!

Just in case you’ve missed the news about the fly connectome. Davi Bock and co’s volume fully annotated by FlyWire and so many people.

What an amazing time for neuroscience!! We are proud to be part of this great adventure. Philip Shiu Andrew Seeds Gabriella Sterne, Ph.D. FlyWire

OK gotta retweet this one. Thanks Greg & right back at you. It’s been a journey!

If you've seen the FlyWire Fly #Connectome images making the rounds and wondering what all the fuss is about, this video is for you. A #scivis primer that covers some essential #neuroscience, context for this historic moment, and the challenge ahead youtu.be/VPaxhoRgqgU

What an extraordinary achievement! Congratulations to everyone involved.

covercovercovercovercovercovercovercovercovercovercover this is terrifically exciting (Also please dw, the central dogma is still very much intact, this is just a bit of a funky spin on it)

Starting soon: FlyWire Live at the Tools, Tech, and Theory BRAIN Initiative Social at #sfn24 Location: maps.app.goo.gl/PZLrucq34QTjtD… Image features neurons colored by neurotransmitter inspired by this paper from Nils Eckstein Alexander Bates et al cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Had a great time presenting my work at #SfN today. Thank you so much everyone that came by for the inspiring discussions!

Researchers have reconstructed the complete wiring diagram, or connectome, of the fruit fly’s adult brain—a feat akin to mapping all the buildings, avenues, and streets in a complex city. bit.ly/4hc6BmO News from Science
