Yes, the paper is cool...
BUT if you’re a fan of fly vision and neuroanatomy, the Supplemental Materials are the real treat 🎉
We made a catalog of all the cells and it's ✨beautiful✨

Using QuAC, we can translate a GABA synapse into an ACh synapse by making minimal changes (highlighted). The images are much easier to compare: now we see that the post-synaptic density got darker.

Now that we know what to look for, we can actually see this feature in the examples above!

We developed QuAC specifically for biomedical applications.

Here is our favorite example: it is really difficult to notice any obvious differences between EM images of synapses releasing different neurotransmitters (e.g., GABA vs. ACh). There is just too much going on!
