Understanding communication and information processing in nervous systems is a central
goal of neuroscience. Over the past two decades, advances in connectomics and network …

Robotics and neuroscience are sister disciplines that both aim to understand how agile,
efficient, and robust locomotion can be achieved in autonomous agents. Robotics has …

Connections between neurons can be mapped by acquiring and analysing electron
microscopic brain images. In recent years, this approach has been applied to chunks of …

The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster has emerged as a key model organism in
neuroscience, in large part due to the concentration of collaboratively generated molecular …

We can now measure the connectivity of every neuron in a neural circuit,,,,,,,–, but we cannot
measure other biological details, including the dynamical characteristics of each neuron …

Brains comprise complex networks of neurons and connections, similar to the nodes and
edges of artificial networks. Network analysis applied to the wiring diagrams of brains can …

The brain is a complex system comprising a myriad of interacting neurons, posing significant
challenges in understanding its structure, function, and dynamics. Network science has …

Efforts are ongoing to map synaptic wiring diagrams, or connectomes, to understand the
neural basis of brain function. However, chemical synapses represent only one type of …

A deep understanding of how the brain controls behaviour requires map** neural circuits
down to the muscles that they control. Here, we apply automated tools to segment neurons …

The recent assembly of the adult Drosophila melanogaster central brain connectome,
containing more than 125,000 neurons and 50 million synaptic connections, provides a …
