New technologies that allow scientists to trace the fine wiring of the brain more accurately than ever before could soon generate a complete wiring diagram–including every tiny fiber and miniscule ...

To really understand the human brain, scientists say you'd have to map its wiring. The only problem: there are more than 100 trillion different connections to find, trace and characterize. But a team ...

The FlyWire consortium set out to create a complete wiring diagram of the fly brain and tools for the community to access it. The package of papers includes the description of the resource and other ...

Neuroscientists have reconstructed the first complete wiring map of the fruit-fly brain, including 140,000 neurons and more than 50 million connections. This resource has already begun to ...

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 created the first detailed wiring diagram of an insect brain. The brain, from a fruit fly larva, contained 3016 neurons connected by 548,000 synapses, the team reported Thursday in the ...
