Live imaging is an important technique for studying cell biological processes, however this
can be challenging in live animals. The translucent cuticle of the Drosophila larva makes it …

With powerful genetics and a translucent cuticle, the Drosophila larva is an ideal model
system for live imaging studies of neuronal cell biology and function. Here, we present an …

Drosophila melanogaster is a well-established model organism to understand biological
processes and study human diseases at the molecular-genetic level. The central nervous …

Live imaging is a valuable approach for investigating cell biology questions. The Drosophila
larva is particularly suited for in vivo live imaging because the larval body wall and most …

The simple body plan and semitranslucent cuticle of the Drosophila larva allow for imaging
of structures close to the body wall within intact animals. These include sensory neurons …

Recent improvements in optical imaging, genetically encoded fluorophores and genetic
tools allowing efficient establishment of desired transgenic animal lines have enabled …

We present a microfluidic chip for immobilizing Drosophila melanogaster larvae for high
resolution in vivo imaging. The chip creates a low-temperature micro-environment that …

Live cell imaging is an important technique applied to a number of Drosophila tissues used
as models to investigate topics such as axis specification, cell differentiation and …

The regrowth capacity of damaged neurons governs neuroregeneration and functional
recovery after nervous system trauma. Over the past few decades, various intrinsic and …

Micro fabricated fluidic devices provide an accessible micro-environment for in vivo studies
on small organisms. Simple fabrication processes are available for microfluidic devices …
