The blueprint for taste: scientists map the complete circuitry behind an animal’s feeding decisions

The taste map, led by scientists at CF, is one of two landmark studies published in Cell by a team of researchers in the US and Europe. It draws on a companion study that maps the wiring of the first complete central nervous system of a complex adult animal: nearly 167,000 neurons spanning the brain and nerve cord of a male fruit fly, with artificial intelligence (AI) making a reconstruction on this scale possible.
