This project investigates how the brain of Drosophila fruit flies evaluates conflicting sensory information during courtship, balancing the need for reproduction against survival. Using advanced genetic and imaging techniques, it aims to identify the neural mechanisms that govern action selection in response to threats…
Prioritising the most urgent goal according to the context and physiological needs is crucial for the success of any organism.
Action-selection processes are often disrupted in neuropathologies, such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and addiction; however, the underlying neuronal mechanisms are not well understood.
Crucially, how the brain evaluates sensory conflicting options and selects an appropriate action remains unknown. I will tackle this question using a novel assay in which…
