Hungry flies shifting from cooler to warmer temperature preferences in response to non-nutritive food indicates a taste-triggered response, similar to the cephalic phase response observed in mammals.
Metabolomics analysis identified potential neuroactive metabolites, issued from food and microbial fermentation, that are linked to symptoms of depression, anxiety and alcohol craving.

Major differences among the main spinal V1 inhibitory interneuron subgroups were revealed based on neurogenesis, circuit placement, and motoneuron targeting, and Foxp2-V1 interneurons were identified tightly coupled to limb control.
While monitoring neuronal activity in freely moving Drosophila is challenging, HI-FISH enables brain-wide mapping of active neurons and reveals behavior-specific neural activity.
A deep learning-based system objectively and reliably scores the Rey–Osterrieth complex figure test, enhancing the assessment of visual memory deficits from hand-drawn images in clinical settings.
