  • A Visual Motion Detection Circuit Suggested by Drosophila Connectomics
    ARTICLE doi:10.1038/nature12450 A visual motion detection circuit suggested by Drosophila connectomics Shin-ya Takemura1, Arjun Bharioke1, Zhiyuan Lu1,2, Aljoscha Nern1, Shiv Vitaladevuni1, Patricia K. Rivlin1, William T. Katz1, Donald J. Olbris1, Stephen M. Plaza1, Philip Winston1, Ting Zhao1, Jane Anne Horne2, Richard D. Fetter1, Satoko Takemura1, Katerina Blazek1, Lei-Ann Chang1, Omotara Ogundeyi1, Mathew A. Saunders1, Victor Shapiro1, Christopher Sigmund1, Gerald M. Rubin1, Louis K. Scheffer1, Ian A. Meinertzhagen1,2 & Dmitri B. Chklovskii1 Animal behaviour arises from computations in neuronal circuits, but our understanding of these computations has been frustrated by the lack of detailed synaptic connection maps, or connectomes. For example, despite intensive investigations over half a century, the neuronal implementation of local motion detection in the insect visual system remains elusive. Here we develop a semi-automated pipeline using electron microscopy to reconstruct a connectome, containing 379 neurons and 8,637 chemical synaptic contacts, within the Drosophila optic medulla. By matching reconstructed neurons to examples from light microscopy, we assigned neurons to cell types and assembled a connectome of the repeating module of the medulla. Within this module, we identified cell types constituting a motion detection circuit, and showed that the connections onto individual motion-sensitive neurons in this circuit were consistent with their direction selectivity. Our results identify cellular targets for future functional investigations, and demonstrate that connectomes can provide key insights into neuronal computations. Vision in insects has been subject to intense behavioural1,physiological2 neuroanatomy14. Given the time-consuming nature of such recon- and anatomical3 investigations, yet our understanding of its underlying structions, we wanted to determine the smallest medulla volume, neural computations is still far from complete.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 2 ABSTRACT Churchill's interest in secret signals intelligence (sigint) is now common knowledge, but his use of intercepted diplomatic telegrams (bjs) in World War Two has only become apparent with the release in 1994 of his regular supply of Ultra, the DIR/C Archive. Churchill proves to have been a voracious reader of diplomatic intercepts from 1941-44, and used them as part of his communication with the Foreign Office. This thesis establishes the value of these intercepts (particularly those Turkey- sourced) in supplying Churchill and the Foreign Office with authentic information on neutrals' response to the war in Europe, and analyses the way Churchill used them.

  • Michigan-Specific Reporting Update Memorandum
    DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 7500 Security Boulevard Baltimore, Maryland 21244-1850 MEDICARE-MEDICAID COORDINATION OFFICE DATE: February 28, 2020 TO: Medicare-Medicaid Plans in Michigan FROM: Lindsay P. Barnette Director, Models, Demonstrations and Analysis Group SUBJECT: Revised Michigan-Specific Reporting Requirements and Value Sets Workbook The purpose of this memorandum is to announce the release of the revised Medicare-Medicaid Capitated Financial Alignment Model Reporting Requirements: Michigan-Specific Reporting Requirements and corresponding Michigan-Specific Value Sets Workbook. These documents provide updated guidance, technical specifications, and applicable codes for the state-specific measures that Michigan Medicare-Medicaid Plans (MMPs) are required to collect and report under the demonstration. As with prior annual update cycles, revisions were made in an effort to streamline and clarify reporting expectations for Michigan MMPs. Please see below for a summary of the substantive changes to the Michigan-Specific Reporting Requirements. Note that the Michigan-Specific Value Sets Workbook also includes changes; Michigan MMPs should carefully review and incorporate the updated value sets, particularly for measures MI2.5, MI5.6, MI7.1, and MI7.3. Michigan MMPs must use the updated specifications and value sets for measures due on or after June 1, 2020. Michigan MMPs must also reference the latest Prevention Quality Indicators (PQI) technical specifications when reporting measure MI5.1 on April 30, 2020. Should you have any questions, please contact the Medicare-Medicaid Coordination Office at [email protected]. SUMMARY OF CHANGES Introduction • In the “Variations from the Core Reporting Requirements Document” section, updated the Michigan-specific guidance regarding data sources for reporting Core Measure 9.2.
