How much inhibition does a male (fly) need to succeed with the females? new preprint: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.01.24.525304

The hairs are innervated and I’d like to understand the exact function of the sensory neurons associated with them. Special mystery: are they all mechanosensory or are some chemosensory?

#introduction I’m Anne, Professor in #neuroscience at Fribourg University. In our #Drosophila lab, we work on neuronal circuits for reproductive behavior and acoustic communication, sex differences of the nervous system and the signaling function of seminal fluid. I like #arthopods #sexualselection #matechoice #spermcompetition #microscopy and #connectomics
Used to work with #zebrafish #development #axonguidance
Also teaching and keen on #embryology and #histology for medical students...
