Recent advances in brain-wide recordings of small animals such as worms, fish, and flies have revealed complex activity involving large populations of neurons. In the brain, with about 140,000 neurons, brain-wide recordings have been critical to uncovering widespread sensory and motor activity. However, current limitations in volumetric imaging rates hinder the accurate capture of fast neural dynamics. To improve the speed of volumetric imaging in , we leverage the recently introduced light beads microscopy (LBM) method. We built a microscope and a LBM module tailored to fly brain experiments and used it to record brain-wide calcium signals in adult behaving flies at 28 volumes per second and at 60 volumes per second when selecting the central brain alone. We uncover fast-timescale auditory responses that are missed with standard volumetric imaging. We also demonstrate how temporal super-resolution can be combined with LBM data to uncover responses to single courtship song pulses. This establishes LBM as a viable tool for capturing whole-brain activity at high spatial and temporal resolution in the fly.
