Super-resolution fluorescence imaging by photoactivation or photoswitching of single
fluorophores and position determination (single-molecule localization microscopy, SMLM) …

Neurotransmitters are released by synaptic vesicle exocytosis at the active zone of a
presynaptic nerve terminal. In this review, I discuss the molecular composition and function …

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are a persistent human foe, transmitting arboviruses including
dengue when they feed on human blood. Mosquitoes are intensely attracted to body odor …

The view that sleep is essential for survival is supported by the ubiquity of this behavior, the
apparent existence of sleep-like states in the earliest animals, and the fact that severe sleep …

Drosophila melanogaster has a rich repertoire of innate and learned behaviors. Its 100,000-
neuron brain is a large but tractable target for comprehensive neural circuit mapping. Only …

We established a collection of 7,000 transgenic lines of Drosophila melanogaster.
Expression of GAL4 in each line is controlled by a different, defined fragment of genomic …

We describe the development and application of methods for high-throughput
neuroanatomy in Drosophila using light microscopy. These tools enable efficient multicolor …

Despite the importance of the insect nervous system for functional and developmental
neuroscience, descriptions of insect brains have suffered from a lack of uniform …

Here, we document a collection of∼ 7434 MiMIC (Minos Mediated Integration Cassette)
insertions of which 2854 are inserted in coding introns. They allowed us to create a library of …

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