Modulation of nociception allows animals to optimize chances of survival by adapting their
behaviour in different contexts. In mammals, this is executed by neurons from the brain and …

The biological bases of wanting have been characterized in mammals, but whether an
equivalent wanting system exists in insects remains unknown. In this study, we focused on …

Highlights•Integrated omics facilitate neuropeptide identification and spatiotemporal
analysis.•Social behavior complexity involves regulatory network of multiple neuropeptides.• …

Odour processing exhibits multiple parallels between vertebrate and invertebrate olfactory
systems. Insects, in particular, have emerged as relevant models for olfactory studies …

Recent advances in calcium imaging, including the development of fast and sensitive
genetically encoded indicators, high-resolution camera chips for wide-field imaging, and …

Motivation can critically influence learning and memory. Multiple neural mechanisms
regulate motivational states, among which signalling via specific neuropeptides, such as …

Division of labor is central to the ecological success of social insects. Among foragers of the
honey bee, specialization for collecting nectar or pollen correlates with their sensitivity to …

Honey bees represent an iconic model animal for studying the underlying mechanisms
affecting advanced sensory and cognitive abilities during communication among colony …

Olfaction is critical for survival because it allows animals to look for food and detect
pheromonal cues. Neuropeptides modulate olfaction and behaviors in insects. While how …

Simple Summary In this work, we imaged the neuronal activity in the peripheral olfactory
system of honey bees, the antennal lobes. Instead of the conventional analysis that focuses …
