This project investigates how the fruit fly Drosophila uses retinal movements to enhance visual perception. By studying these movements, researchers aim to understand the underlying cellular mechanisms and how they contribute to depth perception and visual stabilization in a simpler nervous system.
Sensory perception is often an active process, and many animals move their sensory organs to actively shape their interactions with the outside world.
Active sensing can provide animals with important information that impacts their survival and overall fitness.
We recently found that Drosophila adjust their visual input by moving their retinas underneath the stationary lenses of the compound eye.
The discovery of retinal movements in the fly provides us with a fantastic toolbox to study the cell…
