🧠Janelia scientists have reached another milestone in connectomics: A wiring diagram of the fruit fly visual system.

With 50K+ neurons, the optic lobe connectome provides the fullest picture yet of one of the most important parts of the nervous system.

Amazing collaboration and #teamscience. The VNC is where it (motor behavior) is @

🔥 Today, researchers unveiled the connectome of the male adult fruit fly nerve cord.

🧠 With about 23K neurons, 10 million pre-synaptic sites & 74 million post-synaptic densities, it’s the most in-depth & complete wiring diagram of a fly nerve cord.

Amazing work and amazing team! Really proud of what has been accomplished and know the world will benefit from the thoughtful and careful work done and our sharing it broadly in an accessible way. #teamscience

[HHMI | Janelia @HHMIJanelia]

Neuroscience research just got a little bit easier, thanks to the release of tens of thousands of images of fruit fly brain neurons generated by Janelia’s FlyLight Project Team, now detailed in a new paper in @eLife.

@KristenRatan @TempletonWorld Wonderful news and no doubt great things will come when flipping research funding to #OpenScience

[Silicon Valley Robotics 🐳 @svrobo]

Should you do a PhD program? Here's a great article by Sonia Roberts "Careers in Robotics: What is a PhD".
Sonia is a Postdoc in soft robotics at Northeastern University and Women in Robotics Board Member.

[MouseLight @realMouseLight]

@konrad_rokicki A great collaboration between @realMouseLight and Janelia Scientific Computing to make the MouseLight workstation run in the cloud extending our ability to collaborate and trace neurons w/ synaptic resolution and with long range projections #openscience #teamscience @HHMIJanelia

[Konrad Rokicki @[email protected] @konrad_rokicki]

Sneak peak of the janeliaHortaCloud neuron tracing platform, now running entirely in the cloud using AWS AppStream. We just made version 0.1 available, and we're quickly iterating towards a stable 1.0 release.

This is a great way to meet other people passionate about changing research communication! Happy to answer any questions...

[Wyatt Korff @korfffly]

Really excited to get this paper out. Physiology, mechanics, neuroscience, population coding, #teamscience. The amazing @UTRCAST does it again! Population of descending neurons that regulates the flight motor of Drosophila https://t.co/VBLl0vascM @HHMIJanelia

[Wyatt Korff @korfffly]

Come work with us, this is an amazing team and amazing place to work.

@janeliagenie Very excited about this collaborative effort with @Abdelfattah_Lab, @janeliagenie, and many others! Voltron2 is a more sensitive GEVI that performs better in flies, fish, and mice. Give it a try!

[Ilya Kolb @i__kolb]

All the data from hundreds of screened mutants are freely available in a Binder notebook! You can easily peruse sensitivities, kinetics, and SNR of every variant we tested. See if there are variants with interesting properties that we missed! https://t.co/HaTfNIZ3HH
