This project focuses on understanding how neural circuits control limb movements, using the fruit fly as a model. By investigating specific neurons and their roles in movement, it aims to provide insights applicable to treating movement disorders and developing neural prosthetics.
Understanding how neural circuits control arm and leg movements is a major challenge in neuroscience with implications for treating movement disorders, designing neural prostheses, and robotics.
Limb movements are coordinated by low-level motor circuits in the spinal cord (in vertebrates) or ventral nerve cord (in invertebrates), which receive movement instructions from the brain via a small number of descending neurons (DNs). DNs constitute the critical link between the brain and the body.
