In a monumental achievement for neurobiological research, scientists have successfully mapped the entire brain of a fruit fly, marking the first time such an intricate connectome has been created for any animal. This breakthrough, published in the journal Nature, represents a major step forward in understanding how brains function across the animal kingdom and could have far-reaching implications for studying human brain disorders like dementia, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s disease.

The research team, led by scientists from Princeton University, meticulously charted more than 50 million connections. . .
