Optic Lobe Cell Catalog
Much of a fly’s cognitive processing power is dedicated to vision. Understanding circuits underlying vision may uncover secrets of sensory processing in other intelligent animals. Here’s an overview of the main cell types of the fly optic lobes.

FlyWire: Column Countdown
Our first goal in FlyWire is an optical column. We initially define this as all the synaptic partners of one Medulla neuron. Together, that comes to 160 cells total. How fast can we map them?
