FANC (pronounced "fancy") is the Female Adult Nerve Cord, a GridTape-TEM dataset of an adult Drosophila melanogaster's ventral nerve cord. The dataset was first published in Phelps, Hildebrand, Graham et al. 2021 Cell, after which we applied automated methods for reconstructing neurons, synapses, and nuclei to accelerate reconstruction of the ventral nerve cord connectome, as described in Azevedo, Lesser, Mark, Phelps et al. 2022 bioRxiv. We now oversee a collaborative effort including over 20 labs to finish the FANC connectome by manually correcting the remaining errors in the automated reconstructions. As of June 2023, about a third of the neurons in FANC have been proofread.
