A map of part of a mouse brain, which is expected to be generalisable to people, could help scientists understand behaviours, ...

Researchers at EPFL's Neuroengineering Laboratory, led by Pavan Ramdya, aim to replicate the workings of the brain of the ...

But a team of researchers at Harvard has recognized that there are some behaviors that are so instinctual that it's possible to induce animals to act as if they were robotic. Or mostly robotic, at ...

EPFL researchers use fruit fly brains and optogenetics to develop agile robotic systems, bridging neuroscience and advanced ...

The team of international researchers, including Zandawala, has created the first comprehensive map of the circadian clock network in the fruit fly brain. This groundbreaking research, published in ...

If you buy through a BGR link, we may earn an affiliate commission, helping support our expert product labs. Scientists have done something immeasurably intriguing: they’ve managed to map the ...

When the fly went left of its goal, for instance, PFL3 cells located on the right side of the brain fired to make the insect correct its course. The opposite was true for the PFL3 neurons on the left ...

This map shows the precise location and arrangement of the 50 largest neurons of the fly brain connectome. These 50, along with another 139,205 brain cells in the brain of an adult fruit fly ...

To investigate CG8093, Usha Acharya’s team generated a fly line that expressed a green fluorescent protein-tagged version of the molecule in the gut. Using fluorescence microscopy, they tracked the ...

A research team at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) has demonstrated how temperature can affect brain development in fruit flies. The work is published in the journal Science Advances.
