Peripheral anatomy and central connectivity of proprioceptive sensory neurons in the Drosophila wing

The paper bridges the gap between the central and peripheral nervous systems in Drosophila by reconstructing wing sensory axons and mapping them to peripheral structures, identifying novel proprioceptors and their connectivity.

High-Complexity Barcoded Rabies Virus for Scalable Circuit Mapping Using Single-Cell and Single-Nucleus Sequencing

The paper introduces a method to map neuronal circuits using barcoded rabies virus and single-nucleus RNA sequencing, revealing cell-type-specific circuit motifs in developing human cerebral cortex.

Tools for comprehensive reconstruction and analysis of a female Drosophila ventral nerve cord

The paper reconstructs and analyzes the female Drosophila ventral nerve cord connectome, identifying neural circuits that coordinate wings and legs during escape takeoff.

Synaptic architecture of leg and wing premotor control networks in Drosophila

The paper analyzes premotor circuits in Drosophila to compare leg and wing motor control networks, finding modular organization and differences in synaptic connectivity.

Cell-type specific transcriptomic signatures of neocortical circuit organization and their relevance to autism

The paper identifies cell-type specific transcriptomic signatures in mouse neocortical regions and links them to autism risk genes.
