TL;DR: A consortium of neurobiologists studying arthropod brains, the Insect Brain Name Working Group, has established the present hierarchical nomenclature system, using the brain of Drosophila melanogaster as the reference framework, while taking the brains of other taxa into careful consideration for maximum consistency and expandability.

TL;DR: This framework enriches the ImageJ software libraries with methods that greatly reduce the complexity of developing image analysis tools in an interactive 3D visualization environment and provides high-level access to volume rendering, volume editing, surface extraction, and image annotation.

TL;DR: This work shows that the central-most part of the fly brain, the fan-shaped body, contains parts of a network mediating visual pattern recognition, and identifies short-term memory traces of two pattern parameters—elevation in the panorama and contour orientation.

TL;DR: A collection of P-element insertions that have considerable utility for generating custom chromosomal aberrations in Drosophila melanogaster are described and their end points mapped, with base-pair resolution, to the genome sequence.

TL;DR: In humans and other primates, lesions and noninvasive imaging techniques have provided fascinating insights into the underlying functional topology of the brain, but these approaches reveal structure–function relationships that are difficult to interpret in terms of network-based brain models.
