2 Figure 1 Mapping the fly brain.
Single-cell labelling is performed on driver lines that label subsets of the ∼100,000 neurons in the fly brain. Individual neurons are extracted from confocal stacks, registered onto a template brain and then reassembled into a common reference space. This information is used to identify both local processing units (LPUs) and fibre tracts. Finally, a coarse connectivity map is constructed that predicts information flow between LPUs.
