Today the peer-reviewed version of our preprint is out:
"The #connectome of an insect brain"
https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.add9330
Congrats to co-first authors Michael Winding and Benjamin Pedigo, and to all our lab members and collaborators who made this work possible over the years. A journey that started over 10 years ago–and yet this is but a new beginning. So much more to come.

(The "Winding, Pedigo et al. 2023" annotation listing all included neurons will appear very soon in an upcoming update.)
@albertcardona glad to find you here too. The super-fast, multi-camera light-sheet microscope is in the hands of our colleagues at Janelia. Several zebrafish larvae were imaged as dry runs prior to my departure last month. It still awaits a few more optimizations then tests, after which it should be ready for the real world… hopefully soon!
👋🏼 I’m Raghav Chhetri, a scientist at Rockefeller University in NYC. I like to follow cells, neurons, photons through the lens of custom microscopes. I’m broadly interested in developing and applying neuroimaging technologies to understand the brain. I feel strongly about current practices in scientific research and strive to make science open, accessible, and welcoming to minorities, historically marginalized, and societally disadvantaged groups.
