Could you build this?

No Simulating biological neural dynamics across 166,700 mapped neurons from the MaleCNS fruit fly connectome requires specialized computational neuroscience expertise and heavy graph simulation engines.

What it would actually take: A real system requires importing synaptic connectome data (such as Janelia fly connectome graphs) into a neural simulation framework (e.g., Brian2, NEST, or custom GPU/WebAssembly sparse graph propagators). The pipeline models visual stimulus injection into LC10a projection neurons, models spike/graded-potential propagation across hundreds of thousands of synaptic connections, and reads out downstream DNa02 descending neurons. Building and tuning biological biophysical models constrained by connectomic data requires PhD-level computational neuroscience and specialized scientific computing.
