A beautiful story by a team of three @boehringer PhD fellows in the laboratory studying the brain's descending control of behavior. Now out in @biorxivpreprint ! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… @EPFL_en @epflSV @Brainmind_EPFL @EPFL_BioE @EDNE_EPFL @epfl_edcb @snsf_ch @snsf

I'm excited to share our (me, @femke_hurtak,@wangchensibo, @ramdya) latest work uncovering how networks of descending neurons transform command-like signals into population-based behavioral control. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/n)

I would like to thank my co-authors (@femke_hurtak,@wangchensibo,@ramdya) for this team effort. We also are extremely grateful for the willingness to share reagents and the openness of the community. We are excited to share our DN network model and hear your thoughts about it.

Taken together, we propose a new model of descending control: Networks of DNs are recruited to transform command-like signals into population-based behavioral control. DN recruitment may be a mechanism to construct flexible behaviors by combining multiple motor subroutines. (9/n)

This mainly serves as a proof of concept. In the long-term (pun intended), this method might allow to track neuronal activity across the life span of a fly, for example in models of neurodegenerative diseases.

I had a lot of fun contributing to the neural data analysis of this project. When @LauraHrmns fed the flies with a high dose of caffeine, we observed massive waves of neural activity. So dose your daily coffees wisely ☕️😉

We developed microfabricated tools for long-term 2-photon imaging of the ventral nerve cord: the Drosophila motor control center. Congratulations to first authors, @LauraHrmns and @muratkaynak86, as well as the rest of the team ! 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
