Aimlessly wandering around a city or exploring the new mall may seem unproductive, but new research from HHMI's Janelia ...

New research shows your brain may learn complex visual patterns without effort, reward, or feedback -- just by passively ...

Neuroscientists want to understand how individual neurons encode information that allows us to distinguish objects, like ...

Imagine you're sitting at a pond, listening to the din of croaking frogs. You want to know how many frogs are in the pond, but you can't pick out the individual croaks—only the combined sound rising ...

All Janelia Farm group leaders, fellows and junior fellows are actively engaged in research. They work in small teams that cross disciplinary boundaries to address the research center’s two broad ...

HHMI Janelia Research Campus’s FlyLight Project Team, which has worked for more than a decade to create tools to study the fly brain, is making a core collection of their best genetically ...

Scientists at HHMI’s Janelia Research Campus have discovered a new kind of synapse in the tiny hairs on the surface of neurons. The commonly overlooked protrusions called primary cilia contain ...

Now, a new technique developed at HHMI's Janelia Research Campus is allowing scientists to fill in these missing pages and reveal the motion of molecules inside cells like never before.

Now, Janelia scientists and collaborators, led by Jonathan Marvin, a senior scientist on Janelia's Tool Translation Team, have developed the next generation sensor, iATPSnFR2, that can track ATP ...

Then in 2018 scientists at the Janelia Research Campus made public a trove of more than 20 million electron microscope images of brain areas in a single female fruit fly.

By infusing a virtual fruit fly with artificial intelligence, Janelia and Google DeepMind, scientists have created a computerized insect that can walk and fly just like the real thing.
