The paper presents the complete connectome of the Drosophila male central nervous system and compares it to the female connectome, identifying sex-specific and dimorphic neuronal types.

A FIB-SEM connectome of the male Drosophila right optic lobe sorts ∼53,000 neurons into 727 types, with neurotransmitter predictions and 577 matched split-GAL4 lines.

The paper uses artificial neural networks to classify neurotransmitters from electron microscopy images of Drosophila melanogaster synapses, achieving high accuracy and revealing ultrastructural differences.

Roughly 23 thousand traced neurons and 10 million TBars of the male Drosophila nerve cord, reconstructed from electron microscopy, typed, and queryable in neuPrint down to motor neurons.

This study identifies the neural network structure of the Drosophila heading direction system, confirming it contains ring attractor components and revealing novel structural features.

The paper presents a detailed connectome of the adult Drosophila central brain, including new methods for data analysis and biological insights into neural circuit organization.

A dense electron-microscopy reconstruction of half the fly central brain, with nearly every cell typed and queryable online, turns months of tracing partners into a database lookup.
