A substantial portion of our sensory experience happens during active behaviors such as
walking around or paying attention. How do sensory systems work during such behaviors …

Highlights•We describe recent advances in the field of visual processing in Drosophila.•We
present in detail the neuronal circuits underlying four visual modalities.•Motion vision …

The anatomy of many neural circuits is being characterized with increasing resolution, but
their molecular properties remain mostly unknown. Here, we characterize gene expression …

A mechanistic understanding of neural computation requires determining how information is
processed as it passes through neurons and across synapses. However, it has been …

Detailed descriptions of brain-scale sensorimotor circuits underlying vertebrate behavior
remain elusive. Recent advances in zebrafish neuroscience offer new opportunities to …

Many animals orient using visual cues, but how a single cue is selected from among many is
poorly understood. Here we show that Drosophila ring neurons—central brain neurons …

Studies in biological vision have always been a great source of inspiration for design of
computer vision algorithms. In the past, several successful methods were designed with …

How stem cells produce the huge diversity of neurons that form the visual system, and how
these cells are assembled in neural circuits are a critical question in developmental …

An animal's self-motion generates optic flow across its retina, and it can use this visual
signal to regulate its orientation and speed through the world. While orientation control has …

The brain's evolution and operation are inextricably linked to animal movement, and critical
functions, such as motor control, spatial perception, and navigation, rely on precise …
