PRISM has the potential to solve the proofreading challenge of connectomics for good - fantastic collaboration with E11, MIT, and the Crick!
@E11BIO is excited to unveil PRISM technology for mapping brain wiring with simple light microscopes. Today, brain mapping in humans and other mammals is bottlenecked by accurate neuron tracing. PRISM uses molecular ID codes and AI to help neurons trace themselves. We discovered

The $3B Human Genome Project was started under a Republican administration and later acknowledged by the Obama admin to have returned $141 to the economy for every $1 spent. Science has a higher ROI than any other category of government spending.

🧠 In #connectomics, artificial neural networks analyze biological ones, but large-scale benchmarks have been lacking. We introduce NISB - the Neuron Instance Segmentation Benchmark, generated with novel 3D diffusion models! 1/2

Big day for neuroscience & the end of the beginning for whole brain connectomics. Shout out to @sdorkenw and Philipp Schlegel, first authors of the connectome papers, @MurthyLab @SebastianSeung for establishing #flywire to make this possible and @dddavi for birthing this dataset.
Big news! The fly connectome is featured on the cover of a special edition of Nature. This is all possible thanks to the collaboration of 292 members of The FlyWire Consortium! https://t.co/Mrz7Yrx1eU Check out the thread for an overview of the 9 #flywire papers published today

Incredibly proud and grateful to be part of the #FlyWire team that made this happen. This was an immensely collaborative project - on every level from early open data sharing, to tool building, to analysis - over many years, across many institutions. It's been a fantastic journey
