An icon in the shape of a lightning bolt. Impact Link Ukraine's F-16 pilots have had to dramatically change the way they fly in a very short period of time in order to fight Russia, and it's a ...

The brain diagram, called a connectome, could revolutionize researchers’ understanding of the human brain, which has many parallels with a fruit fly’s Margherita Bassi Daily Correspondent ...

Hundreds of scientists and citizen scientists from around the world have mapped out more than 50 million connections in the tiny fruit fly brain ... along with zebra fish, roundworms and mice ...

Because our makeups have so many parallels, a new study released this week exploring how 140,000 neurons connect in the fruit fly brain could have wide-reaching implications. Hundreds of scientists ...

In the brain of a singular fruit fly, nerve cells weave themselves together, enabling flight, mating, eating, sleeping and every other activity of her fly life. Now, in nine papers published ...

Scientists have mapped out how 140,000 neurons are wired in the brain of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. By Carl Zimmer A fruit fly’s brain is smaller than a poppy seed, but it packs ...

As a result, we only have a complete connectome for very simple nervous systems containing orders of magnitude fewer neurons than the fly. ‘FlyWire’, built a consortium comprising researchers ...

“FlyWire,” a Princeton-led team of scientists and citizen scientists, has now made a massive step toward understanding the human brain by building a neuron-by-neuron and synapse-by-synapse roadmap — ...
