Neurobiology of Flight Control

[Neurobiology of Flight Control @SchnellLab]

New preprint! 🪰

We explore how flies make rapid evasive turns during flight. Our study on DNp03, a neuron linking visual input to motor output, offers insights into how the fly brain initiates this important behavior.

Paper out!!! #Drosophila has muscles that attach to their retinas, which it uses to move its photoreceptor sheet in ways that resemble vertebrate eye movements @Nature https://t.co/kQYT71OBy3

More evidence that processing of sensory information is likely to be tuned to behavioral context: New @iScience_CP paper now out by our @SchnellLab on how multiple mechanisms mediate the suppression of motion vision during escape maneuvers in drosophila.

The work focuses on investigating the neural mechanisms underlying flight control in Drosophila, with a focus on descending neurons.

Also, please share - we got a PostDoc position available in beautiful majestic Bonn, for work with beautiful majestic flies, with a beautiful majestic two-photon microscope.

I heard @PhilippeFische6 is on parental leave, so he has a bunch of free time to answer questions??

Congratulations to our group leader @SchnellLab who has been awarded a @ERC_Research Starting Grant to find out how even the tiny brains of fruit flies make decisions. We are looking forward to more fascinating Drosophila data!

📢PAPER ALERT📢
Our PhD student @scidanm and our co-speaker Heinz Beck have a paper to share! Together with first author @BraganzaOliver and co-author @tonykellyEU, they explain how "quantitative properties of a feedback circuit predict frequency-dependent pattern separation".
