Three string players share the story of playing a mystery manuscript – and reveal what it was like when they learned it was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It’s probably quite common for a young ...

Hundreds of scientists and citizen scientists from around the world have mapped out more than 50 million connections in the tiny fruit fly brain, a step toward one day producing an intricate map ...

An international collaboration of scientists has mapped the brain of a fruit fly in a milestone research project announced on Thursday. The research sought to decipher how brains are wired and the ...

It's an accomplishment that scientists have dreamed about for more than half a century. At last, a massive international team of researchers has mapped in exquisite detail every neuron in the brain of ...

Scientists have recently completed the most ambitious effort yet to construct such a map: a complete document of every neuron and every connection in the brain of an adult fruit fly. The research ...

Scientists have mapped out how 140,000 neurons are wired in the brain of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. By Carl Zimmer A fruit fly’s brain is smaller than a poppy seed, but it packs ...

The brain is your body’s command center. It powers all of your body’s mechanisms and processes: how you run and dance and figure out a waiter’s tip, your hunger for chocolate or roast ...

"Now that we have this brain map, we can close the loop on which neurons relate to which behaviors," said Dorkenwald. The development could lead to tailored treatments to brain diseases.

Bock thinks the discrepancy could be because the hemibrain fly might have starved while it was still growing, which harmed its brain development. The FlyWire researchers say that much work remains ...
