a group of Drosophila erecta fruit flies on a small food patch. flies on white background

Excited to share our new #biorxivpreprint

We discovered that the fruit fly #drosophila erecta requires food odor to mate and arousal is further enhanced by social group motion.

Thank you! 😊

Thank you 😊

Ohhh…looks like I missed that paper! Can you please send me the link? 😊

Thank you 😊

Finally, the organisation of the olfactory circuit enable us to interpret function out of structure, uncovering core conserved as well as hot-spot subcircuits, and leading to testable predictions.

We identified evolutionary patterns. E.g. over short evolutionary distances neuron types and numbers remain conserved, but how they connect changes. See schematic for other key points!

How do brain circuits evolve? We started looking for some answers by using synapse-resolution cross-species comparative connectomics on an entire olfactory circuit 👇
