yes it is!! thank you :)

It’s surreal to think that every neuron and synapse in the fly brain + cord that was dissected almost five years ago (the photo’s still on the lab slack!) is now just a click away on Codex codex.flywire.ai?dataset=banc. This wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible team behind it!

I’m happy to share our latest work (co-lead by Selina Qian) has today been published in its final form in @:natureneuro.bsky.social: Read here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41593-025-01915-4
