Scientists have done something immeasurably intriguing: they've managed to map the brain of a larval fruit fly completely. It's a huge step forward for neuroscience, as it gives scientists a complete ...

When asked what’s so special about Drosophila melanogaster, or the common fruit fly, Gerry Rubin quickly gets on a roll. Rubin has poked and prodded flies for decades, including as a leader of the ...

Over 12 years, researchers mapped all of a larval fruit fly's brain, charting 3,016 neurons and 548,000 connections. It's big news for neuroscience. Reading time 7 minutes To most humans, a fruit fly ...

The study offers valuable insights into how sensory cues are processed and information moves through the neuronal network, opening new pathways to a deeper understanding of the mammalian brain. Study: ...

The early cosmos isn't the easiest to envision. But this June 2025, the team behind the Cosmic Evolution Survey, or the COSMOS collaboration, has made it a bit easier to explore, having released the ...

Scientists have created the first detailed wiring diagram of an insect brain. The brain, from a fruit fly larva, contained 3016 neurons connected by 548,000 synapses, the team reported Thursday in the ...

Researchers have created a complete cell atlas of a whole mammalian brain. This atlas serves as a map for the mouse brain, describing the type, location, and molecular information of more than 32 ...

Astronomers unveiled the most complete 3-D map of the local universe (out to a distance of 380 million light-years) ever created. Taking more than 10 years to complete, the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS ...

Researchers have completed the most advanced brain map to date, that of an insect, a landmark achievement in neuroscience that brings scientists closer to true understanding of the mechanism of ...
