I was looking for this, "In short, Drosophila wiring diagrams are useful because of their stereotypy, yet also open the door to studies of connectome variation." So it's like the first genome sequence. Now we need a 1000 connectome project?

Scientists have mapped the complete connectome of Drosophila fly - all 140,000 neurons. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

The FlyWire connectome: neuronal wiring diagram of a complete fly brain
