Virtual Fly Brain

Virtual Fly Brain consortium (UK institutions incl. MRC HGU)

A long-running UK-funded web atlas that registers neuron images, gene-expression patterns and connectomics onto standard Drosophila brain templates and links them through an anatomy ontology, so anatomy, expression and connectivity can be cross-searched in one place. Supported since 2009, it now indexes over 600,000 3D images and roughly 490,000 neurons with connectivity, spanning hemibrain, FlyWire, FANC and the larval L1EM data. The v2 front end (geppetto-vfb) is an MIT-licensed customisation of the Geppetto platform.
