The largest brain map shows fruit fly’s neurons in detail

A study has found that neurological neurons enter the brain through left or right nerve. Researchers who analysed 200 neuronal data from an experiment described it as ‘left–right co-clustering’. The researchers identified more types of neuron than they had expected. To assign cell types to the remaining neurons, they ran a double-hemisphere co-clustering.

Semantic decoding at single-cell resolution

Scientists have found that a neuron’s action potential activity changes in response to each word heard within one of the semantic domains. They found that an SI of 0 would mean there’s no difference in activity across any of the semantic domains and an SI of 1.0 would indicate that a neuron changed its action potential activity only when hearing words within one of the semantic domains.
