This project investigates how proprioceptive signals from the nerve cord influence decision-making and action selection in locomotion. By studying the fruit fly, it aims to understand the communication between the brain and nerve cord that guides movement direction.
Locomotion is one of the most relevant tasks of nervous systems, allowing animals to approach food, locate a mate, and escape predators.
Most types of locomotion, like walking and flying, are based on rhythmic body movements generated by local premotor networks in the nerve cord, whereas the goal of where to move is generated in the brain e.g., a hungry fly visually locating a food source.
For flexible, goal-directed locomotion, the communication between the brain and premotor networks in the n…
