TL;DR: The utility of 7,000 transgenic lines of Drosophila melanogaster for identifying novel neuronal cell types, revealing brain asymmetry, and describing the nature and extent of neuronal shape stereotypy is illustrated.

TL;DR: An approach for high-resolution tracing of neurons, their subassemblies, and their molecular constituents over large volumes is introduced, which can enable high-throughput comparative studies of neural development, circuit stereotypy, and structural correlations to neural activity or behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drosophila Dscam is required for divergent segregation of sister branches and suppresses ectopic bifurcation of axons.
TL;DR: Dscam controls axon branching and guidance such that a neuron can innervate multiple targets with minimal branching, and when only one target remains, branching is suppressed in wild-type axons while Dscam mutant axons still form multiple branches at the original bifurcation point.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transmembrane/juxtamembrane domain-dependent Dscam distribution and function during mushroom body neuronal morphogenesis.

TL;DR: The results suggest that exon 17.1 is minimally involved in axonal morphogenesis and that morphogenesis of MB axons probably involves multiple distinct ex on 17.2-containing Dscam isoforms.
Patent
Simultaneous imaging and spectroscopy apparatus
TL;DR: In this paper, an apparatus incorporated within a spectroscopic imaging system, typically a microscope, but also applicable to other image gathering platforms, namely fiberscopes, macrolens imaging systems and telescopes employing a polarizing beam splitting element is disclosed.
