Excited to announce the completion of the first adult brain connectome - FlyWire is the neuronal wiring diagram of a Drosophila melanogaster brain with >130K neurons and >32M synapses. Explore at codex.flywire.ai. Check out the preprints:

We are releasing a whole-brain connectome of the fruit fly, including ~130k annotated neurons and tens of millions of typed synapses!

Explore the connectome: codex.flywire.ai

Don’t miss out on the Neural Mechanisms of Acoustic Communication GRC - this May in Maine!

GRC/GRS NMAC @GRC_NMAC_2024 Mar 7, 2024

1) Time to submit abstracts! The 2024 Neural Mechanisms of Acoustic Communication GRC is drawing closer. There's an awesome line-up of speakers working with birds, flies, monkeys, fish, snakes and more. Additional speakers will be selected from abstracts. Please spread the word!

Also excited to announce that @BenjoCowley is starting his own lab @CSHL in the Fall. If you want to work on neural network models of the brain, this is the lab to join!

Benjamin Cowley @BenjoCowley Jun 28, 2022

Update of potential interest: I'll be starting a comp neuro group at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory @CSHL in Sept 2022!

Our group will build closed-loop machine learning techniques and interpretable, data-driven models to understand the step-by-step computations of the brain.

So proud of @Christa_A_Baker - get in touch to do a postdoc in the Baker lab @NCState - Christa is a fabulous mentor, scientist and role model and her lab will be a trailblazer in solving the neural mechanisms underlying acoustic communication in flies.

Excited to share that the Baker Lab will open in Biological Sciences @NCState Jan 2023! We will dissect the neural mechanisms underlying hearing in flies, and how those mechanisms are shaped by evolution. Will be recruiting at all levels so please reach out if interested.
