The paper releases a complete larval Drosophila CNS connectome with automated segmentations and highlights the need for improved machine vision for proofreading.

The paper maps the synaptic-resolution connectome of a Drosophila larva brain, identifying neuron types, circuit motifs, and structural features.

The paper quantifies the relationship between synaptic contact counts and synaptic surface area in Drosophila, showing counts can approximate synaptic strength for modeling neural circuits.
