That's amazing. I'm surprised that mouse brains have only 1000 times more neurons than a fruit fly, although I suppose the difficulty of mapping it scales exponentially (factorially?)

Scientists gave a simulated fly brain a simulated taste of sugar. The brain then sent out a command to extend the virtual fly’s tongue to feed, and if it sensed the sugar on the right side of the tongue, the brain received a signal to bend the tongue out toward the right.
Okay, I'm impressed.
