Great summary of our now published neurotransmitter prediction work that made it possible to add the “sign” of synaptic connections to the full brain Connectome. My thanks to Alexander Bates, Greg Jefferis, Jan Funke and all co-authors. This was an amazing team effort, check it out!

New #LMBResearch from Greg Jefferis’s group at the LMB, in collaboration with Jan Funke HHMI | Janelia, have used image analysis to identify the ‘sign’ of each synaptic connection in the whole fruit fly brain. Read more: www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/first-map-of-t…

This animated cover was not chosen by Cell but the concept came out so cool I had to share! Check out the thread below for new paper ft AI-driven neurotransmitter classification of all neurons in the fly connectome. Explore the fruits of this labor at

The cover that wasn't 🥹 Should I make this into a free poster anyone can print for their lab? Minus the cell branding, ofc Read about this publication which uses AI to automatically label neurotransmitters in the fly connectome.

We have a postdoc opening in the lab - use functional imaging and connectomics to investigate how computations are achieved in brain circuits! 🔬🧠🥳Fully funded and flexible in scope - more info on our website: kuanlab.org/contact. Pls RT!

My favourite discovery ever has just come online. Can I please tell you about some seriously wacky molecular biology? The story starts with a reverse transcriptase that SOMEHOW defends bacteria from viruses. (👇 I recommend sound ON for the video 🎹) 1/
