"In this report, we summarize the results obtained over the past decade."

Which funding agency, which institution could sport such time ranges? #HHMI of course.

"we use existing developmental single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) datasets to select gene pairs for split-GAL4 and provide a highly efficient and predictive pipeline (scMarco) to generate cell-type-specific split-GAL4 lines at any time during development, based on the native gene regulatory elements."

Would love to see this in action, particularly in larvae of course.

A searchable image resource of Drosophila GAL4 driver expression patterns with single neuron resolution

Single neuron images of Drosophila driver lines reveal neuron shape and are searchable, enabling comparisons to electron microscopy and prediction of intersectional neuron targeting strategies.
