PublicationGenetically encoded voltage indicators are emerging tools for monitoring voltage dynamics with cell-type specificity. However, current indicators enable a narrow range of applications due to poor performance …

PublicationNeural activity sculpts circuit wiring in many animals. In vertebrates, patterned spontaneous network activity (PaSNA) generates sensory maps and establishes local circuits.1-3 However, it remains unclear …
-
PublicationCoordinated activity across networks of neurons is a hallmark of both resting and active behavioural states in many species1-5. These global patterns alter energy metabolism over seconds …
-
PublicationAnatomical connectivity can constrain both a neural circuit's function and its underlying computation. This principle has been demonstrated for many small, defined neural circuits. For example, connectome …

PublicationMany animals guide their movements using optic flow, the displacement of stationary objects across the retina caused by self-motion. How do animals selectively synthesize a global motion …
-
PublicationWhile linear mechanisms lay the foundations of feature selectivity in many brain areas, direction selectivity in the elementary motion detector (EMD) of the fly has become a paradigm …

PublicationMotion in the visual world provides critical information to guide the behavior of sighted animals. Furthermore, as visual motion estimation requires comparisons of signals across inputs and over …

PublicationA new study has mapped the connectome - the shapes and connections of all the neurons- of the visual system of a Drosophila larva, providing a structural basis for …
