This project investigates the evolution of decision-making circuits in insect brains, focusing on the central complex region. By integrating advanced technologies and data from fruit flies, it aims to understand how these neural circuits have adapted over time to support complex behaviors across various insect species.
Of the 1.2 million animal species described on Earth, more than 80% are insects.
As for mammals, each insect is equipped with a brain that has evolved to optimally control the species’ behavior in the context of its environment.
In more than 450 million years of evolution the neural circuits guiding behavioral decisions have diverged from an ancestral version to enable insects to conquer every terrestrial habitat on the planet and to equip many species with behavioral strategies that rival even…
