"Tomer and his team used a new technique they developed, called "cellular profiling by image registration," to investigate a large number of genes in the marine ragworm's compact brain. The method enabled the scientists to determine each cell's molecular fingerprint, and to define cell types according to the genes they express, rather than just based on their shape and location, as was done before.

Looks like classification is getting better. I like the level of detail in the article too.
