Animal movement is controlled by motor neurons (MNs), which project out of the central
nervous system to activate muscles. Because individual muscles may be used in many …

In the perception of color, wavelengths of light reflected off objects are transformed into the
derived quantities of brightness, saturation and hue. Neurons responding selectively to hue …

The rich variety of behaviours observed in animals arises through the interplay between
sensory processing and motor control. To understand these sensorimotor transformations, it …

Neurons must be made in the correct proportions to communicate with the appropriate
synaptic partners and form functional circuits. In the Drosophila visual system, multiple …

The rich variety of behaviors observed in animals arises through the complex interplay
between sensory processing and motor control. To understand these sensorimotor …

What insects can see has been probed by over a century of behavioral experiments. Motion
and color vision have also been studied through neurophysiology in insect brains. Here I …

Visual circuit development is characterized by subdivision of neuropils into layers that house
distinct sets of synaptic connections. We find that, in the Drosophila medulla, this layered …

Somatosensory neurons provide the nervous system with information about mechanical
forces originating inside and outside the body. Here, we use connectomics to reconstruct …

Normalization is a fundamental operation in image processing. Convolutional nets have
evolved over the past decade to include a large number of normalizations, and this …

To study how the nervous system processes visual information, experimenters must record
neural activity while delivering visual stimuli in a controlled fashion. In animals with a nearly …
