Rendering compound vision at high speed with high precision, enabling rapid, data-driven exploration of the compound eye design space.

Bigger bumblebee eyes have better vision, yet their field of view, sensitivity, and resolution do not all simply scale up with eye size, being improved locally instead.

New experiments and theory reveal how the ability to see image details depends upon photoreceptor function and eye movements, and how fruit flies (Drosophila) see spatial details beyond the optical limit of their compound eyes.

The two most commonly used chemogenetic actuators, clozapine-N-oxide and compound 21, similarly modulate sleep in wild-type laboratory mice indicating that even designer drugs which do not convert to clozapine can elicit behavioural effects and require adequate controls.

Cdk5-mediated stabilization of Acinus in postmitotic neurons promotes autophagy and the removal of protein aggregates linked to neurodegeneration in Drosophila melanogaster.

Biochemical and structural studies uncover an unexpected mode of interaction, with unprecedented high affinity, between INAD scaffold and NORPA that is critical for Drosophila compound eye photo-transduction.

Phototaxis and courtship behavioral preferences reflect strong correlation with differences in olfactory and visual nervous system investment across five monophyletic Drosophila species, and could help explain their speciation events.

Formation of a triangular lattice of photoreceptor clusters in the compound eye is driven by highly regulated cell flows in the eye epithelium, through a mechanochemical mechanism.

Genetic deletion of one Ptprb allele leads to increased phosphorylation of the TEK receptor, increasing Schlemm's canal area and protecting retinal ganglion cells in a mouse model of glaucoma.

Homeostatic tissue maintenance can occur at locations distinct from the target sites of organ regeneration planarians.
