The human brain contains approximately 87 billion neurons. On average, each of these cells make thousands of different connections to facilitate communication across the brain. Neural communication is ...

San Francisco startup Eon Systems claims that it has created the first digital simulation of a fruit fly brain that can control a virtual body and produce recognizable behaviors.… We'd call this "huge ...

A complete fruit fly brain map shows how reflexes, brain signals, muscles, and organs work together to control movement.
