And!!! Another very recent paper from the @Gordonflylab lab shows functional ON and OFF responses in taste cells that respond to lactic acid. An additional twist in this one: ON and OFF responses are driven by distinct molecular receptors!!
Replying to @hojoonlee
@hojoonlee @technoshaman_ and I wrote a dispatch on the newest paper by @BrainsExplained in @CurrentBiology; Interesting discovery- "off" responses in bitter taste neurons, cool paper and a great way to kick off a new Lab @EmoryUniversity ! See here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1eHF3…
@josh__levy and I also built a little "game" to illustrate the evolutionary algorithm we use to produce competitive BBVs (Braitenberg Vehicles), we call it "GallioLabKart!" open to all ages... Give it a go!galliolab.neurobiology.north…
Here is a teaser video of "Fly vs Braitenberg" in a 2-choice test for heat avoidance. rdcu.be/ch9S6
