The first paper from the lab is out on biorxiv - enjoy reading! Social context and interactions influence our behavioral decisions - the same is true for the little fly larva: Multimodal social context modulates behavior in larval Drosophila doi.org/10.1101/2025.03.24.6…

A historic milestone for neuroscience! It's been a fantastic journey for the #FlyWire Consortium. This special edition of Nature showcases the power of open science, with nine papers that not only describe the fly connectome, but also make discoveries using it.

Big news! The fly connectome is featured on the cover of a special edition of Nature. This is all possible thanks to the collaboration of 292 members of The FlyWire Consortium! nature.com/immersive/d42859-… Check out the thread for an overview of the 9 #flywire papers published today

Its finally out @Nature ! So grateful to have been part of this beautiful work and the dream team that made it happen! nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @NehaSapakal @NinoMancini_
Neural circuit mechanisms underlying context-specific halting in Drosophila

Neural circuit mechanisms underlying context-specific halting in Drosophila

Nature - Two halting mechanisms, ‘walk-OFF’ and ‘brake’, are shown to be engaged by distinct neural circuits in Drosophila, in a context dependent manner.

My lab's first paper is now out @Nature nature.com/articles/s41586-0… Check out the cool new data since the preprint work I described a while back. Excited to have this alongside the other @FlyWireNews connectome papers. Grateful to the team! @NehaSapakal @DivyaSthanu @NinoMancini_
