Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a popular and powerful technology that allows
you to profile the whole transcriptome of a large number of individual cells. However, the …

Astrocytes play both physiological and pathological roles in maintaining central nervous
system (CNS) function. Here, we review the varied functions of astrocytes and how these …

Brains contain networks of interconnected neurons and so knowing the network architecture
is essential for understanding brain function. We therefore mapped the synaptic-resolution …

Deciphering how neuronal diversity is established and maintained requires a detailed
knowledge of neuronal gene expression throughout development. In contrast to mammalian …

Drosophila has long been a successful model organism in multiple biomedical fields. Spatial
gene expression patterns are critical for the understanding of complex pathways and …

Various insect species serve as valuable model systems for investigating the cellular and
molecular mechanisms by which a brain controls sophisticated behaviors. In particular, the …

Many different functions are regulated by circadian rhythms, including those orchestrated by
discrete clock neurons within animal brains. To comprehensively characterize and assign …

The Drosophila brain is a frequently used model in neuroscience. Single-cell transcriptome
analysis,,,,–, three-dimensional morphological classification and electron microscopy …

Molecular profiles of neurons influence neural development and function but bridging the
gap between genes, circuits, and behavior has been very difficult. Here we used single cell …

Animals generate diverse motor behaviors, yet how the same motor neurons (MNs)
generate two distinct or antagonistic behaviors remains an open question. Here, we …
