The long-awaited release of the complete FlyWire brain connectome and associated search engine for exploring it.

Princeton FlyWire co-founders Mala Murthy and Sebastian Seung discuss their latest research findings, as part of the FlyWire collaboration, to reconstruct the Drosophila full brain connectome. The authors will share highlights from their recent Nature publications, in conversation with Nature senior editor, David Rowland. After their discussion, there’s a chance to ask questions.

This webinar will explore:

  • The history of connectomics
  • The goal of the FlyWire group
  • An overview of what is included in the connectome
  • How the connectome is already being used
  • The future of the field
  • How you can use the online tools for exploring the connectome

We invite you to hear their insights, ask questions, and contribute to this timely discussion.
