How are neurons activated by sensory stimuli? For the past century, the only method for addressing this question has been neurophysiology.

We are excited to announce that registration is open for the 2024 Neural Mechanisms of Acoustic Communication Gordon Research Conference. The preliminary program is now live: grc.org/neural-mechanisms-of…
We invite everyone to apply! See you @ Sunday River, Maine, May 19-24, 2024.

This might make you think twice next time you reach for the fly swatter. The whole brain wiring diagram of the fly! All 140,000 neurons and their 50M synapses are available to explore in Codex, the Connectome Data Explorer: codex.flywire.ai/ #sfn23

We've updated our preprint on finding one-to-one mappings of DNN neurons and real visual neurons of fruit fly.
--> 2x silenced data with new LC31 neuron type
--> more LC neural recordings
--> FlyWire connectome
--> knockout training simulations
Enjoy!

Excited to share a new manuscript!
Deep nets are great at predicting visual neurons. Yet, they are unable to tell us which artificial neuron directly corresponds to a biological neuron… until now!

(yes, that is indeed a fictive female fly, good guess!)

Flies are highly visual animals. That’s obvious to anyone who has ever tried to swat one. So it should be no surprise that eyes are so prominent on the fly head.

The fly central brain synthesizes sensory stimuli into decisions and actions. For the first time, ALL 46,944 branched and far-reaching neurons of both hemispheres of the central brain have been reconstructed and are available via FlyWire. join.flywire.ai/

Officially out today @CurrentBiology! Check out @MurthyLab collaborative effort to map and record from fly auditory neurons to build the first auditory wiring diagram in any system. cell.com/current-biology/ful…

yessss it's #BINW22 !!
I'm Sama Ahmed, finishing my postdoc in the @MurthyLab at @PrincetonNeuro and starting my lab at @UWPsychology in 5 weeks !
We test how circuit interactions constrain behavior by studying how flies multitask !

Take a look at the first auditory connectome! New paper utilizing FlyWire from @Christa_A_Baker et al in @CurrentBiology: cell.com/current-biology/ful… Shoutout to @Drexel_Pretzel who created the drosophila serenade illustration in our graphical abstract. @MurthyLab

Fun podcast with Valerie Williams and @Drbiology on SLEAP and describing the quality of motion!
This lively #podcast episode with Valarie Williams and @talmop will not give you any rest, but it will get you the inside story on SLEAP- a new research software inspired by Hollywood motion capture technology. askabiologist.asu.edu/sleap-… @OhioState @salkinstitute @SICB_ @IRiS__UC

A lot of real talk on here about ordering delays hampering new labs. A more uplifting story today: a full VR system just arrived in the mail from @MichaelBReiser & @fra_loe to bridge our crazy back-ordered ones. I'm so lucky to be in a field with such supportive colleagues!

Dear #Drosophila and other #insect #neuroscience colleagues, please fill out this @virtualflybrain survey. Learn about many features that could help your work (including new 3D & connectomics data/queries), set priorities and *support our ongoing application for funding*. Pls RT!
Hello VFB users - we would like to ask a favour. It would be really helpful to us if you could fill out our user survey: surveymonkey.co.uk/r/5HDZZRR. It won't take long. It will be really helpful to us and you get to guide our future development and suggest new features.

Excited to announce our new preprint using automated behavior measurements to study mouse models of autism. We find known and new differences in gait, perseveration, and adaptation. A great collaboration with Ugne Klibaite, @SamWangPhD and colleagues. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Ever wonder what life is like as a grad student @PrincetonNeuro? @rmasiso1 and @abiodun_et_al have the answer. Welcome to PNI. bit.ly/3pqTSAD

My infinite gratitude to all the Black Profs who are mentoring students and postdocs outside of their labs and getting zero pay and recognition from the academy for it.
Your hard work, attention, and support is demonstrably invaluable, even when it is invisible
