Robotics Engineer for Automation of Ultrathin Brain Sectioning The FlyWire Consortium, led by the Princeton Neuroscience Institute, recently released the first neuronal wiring diagram of an adult brain. The fruit fly connectome was obtained by processing electron microscopic brain images to reconstruct tens of millions of synapses between 100,000 neurons. With this historic milestone attained, neuroscience has clearly entered the connectomic era. The image processing benefited from modern high performance computing and artificial intelligence. But the images were acquired from slices of the fly brain that were collected manually, in a manner that has remained essentially unchanged for over 50 years. We are building an engineering team to modernize the collection of ultrathin...
