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 shows that the preferred directions of Drosophila DS neurons are shaped by the compound eye's structure, linking peripheral anatomy to neural function and behavior.

The paper investigates crosstalk between ON and OFF motion pathways in Drosophila and shows how it explains a visual illusion.

The paper investigates directional selectivity in Drosophila OFF motion pathway neurons, finding asymmetric receptive fields and passive suppression mechanisms.
