The simple brain of the fruit fly is invaluable to neuroscientists studying information processing and task management, and a new, incredibly detailed map of fruit fly brain connections now makes that easier.

“The #FlyLight Project produces large anatomical data sets and highly characterized collections of GAL4, LexA and Split-GAL4 drivers in order to enable the visualization and precise manipulation of individual cell types in the #Drosophila nervous system.”

Researchers push preprint reviews to improve scientific communications https://doi.org/10.1126/science.adg2283.

Great report by Jeffrey Brainard covering a recent workshop on preprint peer review organized by #HHMI, @ASAPbio and #EMBO. Lots of hugely important developments in this area. If you want to contribute yourself, make sure to #PublishYourReviews!
