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

Aminergic and peptidergic modulation of insulin-producing cells in Drosophila

The combination of receptor expression analysis, optogenetics, physiological approaches, and connectomics reveals how a heterogeneous population of insulin-producing cells in Drosophila integrates...

Final week to register for the Crete meeting - judging from the people who already signed up, this is shaping up to be a super exciting week for Drosophila circuits enthusiasts.

Hard to overstate how pleased I am that the #flywire consortium converted our FAFB ("Full Adult Fly Brain") EM volume into a connectome, and that the resulting science has been (and will be) so impactful. Thanks to everyone involved.

Here it is! A huge milestone in neuroscience – the complete connectome of the fly brain from the FlyWire team (@FlyWireNews). In this special issue, we have 9 research articles. I’ll try to summarize them in a couple threads starting here 🧵

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 ⬇️
