Neuroscientist studying motor control in Drosophila. @MSCActions Fellow at University of Würzburg with @jan_ache. Previously postdoc with @casa_tuthill.

[Chris J Dallmann @ChrisJDallmann]

Excited to present my @HorizonEU #MSCA project with @jan_ache at the @NeuroforumNWG meeting in Göttingen. If you're interested in how brain circuits control locomotion, come chat with me at poster T23-6C on Friday. #NWG2025 #Drosophila

[FlyWire @FlyWireNews]

Big news! The fly connectome is featured on the cover of a special edition of Nature.
This is all possible thanks to the collaboration of 292 members of The FlyWire Consortium!

Check out the thread for an overview of the 9 #flywire papers published today

[Jan M Ache @jan_ache]

Connectomes, connectomes, connectomes: @MertErginkaya and I wrote a @CurrentBiology dispatch about the FANC fly VNC connectome papers from the @casa_tuthill and @darbly labs in @Nature, and discuss how connectomes change the way we analyze circuits for behavior. Link below ⬇️

Will robots and AI replace scientists? No, our goal is to create robots and ML algorithm that free scientists from labor work to focus on more impactful tasks. The recent publication on the 2nd-gen fly robot from the Schnitzer lab demonstrates our vision. https://t.co/FxcKGTl4w5

@DeepLabCut @jan_ache @neuroethology Indeed! Thank you for developing this amazing tool @DeepLabCut!

[Chris J Dallmann @ChrisJDallmann]

Excited to present my #MSCA project with @jan_ache at #icn2024berlin @neuroethology! If you're interested in motor control, come chat with me at poster PS1.131 (Mon, July 29).

This one is very close to my heart, proudly sharing our newest preprint “Comparative connectomics of the descending and ascending neurons of the Drosophila nervous system: stereotypy and sexual dimorphism”. A short summary of this project that was 4 years in the making:

I am excited to share that our preprint “Nutritional state-dependent modulation of Insulin-Producing Cells in Drosophila” is now available on BioRxiv. A thread🧵 https://t.co/a2g5enD0Oi

[Sweta Agrawal @hokuba]

In our latest preprint, we use connectomics to uncover that the FeCO, the largest somatosensory organ in the fly leg, is not only proprioceptive, but also has a subset of sensory neurons that are dedicated to sensing external substrate vibrations as well: https://t.co/dEDilIcjcr

[Jasper Phelps @jasper_tms]

Very happy to finally announce this new connectome dataset that @mindyisminsu and I generated. At long last, we are closing in on having a complete map of all the neurons and synaptic connections in adult Drosophila. Now we need the community (you!) to help finish the connectome!

[Srini Turaga @srinituraga]

Our collaboration with @GoogleDeepMind has borne fruit! Or rather, a fruit fly 🪰🙂
Simulated with #MuJoCo physics, trained with imitation learning, capable of realistic locomotion, both on the ground and in the air. 1/n

New paper, hot off the press 🥳! Larger animals have longer limbs and are stronger-so why are the fastest runners of intermediate size? It's all to do with physical constraints on muscle, the prime mover. Collab w/ @cclemente4, @TaylorJMDick and P Bishop. https://t.co/XQgKXAgX7l

What a fun event to celebrate #BrainAwarenessWeek! @jan_ache and I had a great time discussing how neural circuits control movement and what we can learn from #Drosophila. Thanks for organizing @CEN_ITN @CircuitsLab!

[Silvia Rodriguez-Rozada @SilviRoz]

It’s a wrap! Our Brain Awareness Week event was a success 🤩 We had a full house, great talks and engaging discussions with the public 🧠🍻 #Scicomm #BrainAwarenessWeek

Thank you to all the speakers, organizing team & neuro-aficionados that joined!

[NeuronBridge @NeuronBridge]

NeuronBridge has been updated with new matches to 35059 additional split-gal4 images from recent publications, including FlyLight's recent split-gal4 driver resource. https://t.co/DmvBGEOhJM

[CEN @CEN_ITN]

We are one week away from #BrainAwarenessWeek @dana_fdn

CEN has prepared two fantastic events in the UK and Germany to celebrate and promote public awareness of the progress and benefits of brain research.

🗓️Würzburg 13th March
🗓️Bristol 15th & 16th March

Stay tuned!

I am thrilled to share our new work from the @KiehnLab investigating how the basal ganglia control locomotion, now out in @NatureNeuro 1/8

[HHMI | Janelia @HHMIJanelia]

🎁 Neuroscientists are getting a special gift to kick off the new year: access to a 'greatest hits' collection of tools to study the fly brain generated by Janelia’s FlyLight Project Team & collaborators over the past decade. 🦟

[Corinna Gebehart @CorinnaGebehart]

Very happy to see this out - Ansgar @bueschges_lab and I wrote down our take on the processing of (multimodal) proprioceptive signals in distributed #insect networks, the #review is out now in @J_Exp_Biol! #proprioception #motorcontrol #VNC

1/ 🤖 New paper hot off the press 🐜
Automated behavioural analysis using machine learning is great, but still needs lots of effort to curate training data. What if a computer could generate that data for you? Say hello to replicAnt https://t.co/LtCipnE59E #OpenSource

[SekiLabs @SekiLabs]

Thrilled to present our recent paper, just published in @NatureComms. In this work, we unveil a novel facet of #presynaptic_inhibition in the realm of #movement_control. (1/n)
