The evidence

No evidence, no level.
Rating note

L1 for executable circuits with documented neuron dynamics — but the evidence took a second reading to place correctly. The FlyBrainLab repository itself is thirteen files of installers, Dockerfiles and a README; the neuron models live in the same organisation’s Neuroballad, which is what the level rests on. Not L2: the platform can host plasticity, and hosting a rule is not running one — L2 would need a specific modelled circuit shipped with it in which synapses change. No validation mark: the eLife 2021 paper uses physiological recordings as model inputs (odorant binding affinities), which is calibration, and its one in-vivo reference is a sentence noting that activity bumps persisted as previously observed, with no figure putting recorded fly data beside model output. A qualitative citation that a model behaves the way an experiment reported is below the bar.
