Preprint Alert! Walking mostly feels natural and easy to us - but the neuronal control of walking is actually incredibly complex. We leveraged the fruit fly as a genetically tractable animal model with a compact nervous system to ask how the brain controls walking direction: tinyurl.com/flywalk. 🧵..

New preprint from the lab: Like many animals, including us humans, fruit fly males generate multimodal signals during courtship—song and vibrations. Elsa Steinfath and Afshin Khalili found that these signals are produced in distinct behavioral contexts by a shared brain circuit.
