MAPL3 enables whole-brain projectome mapping at single-axon resolution using deep learning and light sheet microscopy, outperforming existing methods across diverse datasets.

This study identifies visual projection neurons in Drosophila that encode parallax signals for distance estimation during free locomotion, showing both direction-selective and non-direction-selective neurons contribute to this process.

This study shows how fruit flies use negative visual evidence to improve heading stability during self-motion estimation.
