Researchers trained an AI model to accurately predict male fruit flies' courtship behavior in response to any sight of a female. This breakthrough offers new insight into how the brain processes ...

Scientists have identified an automatic behavior in flies that helps them assess wind conditions -- its presence and direction -- before deploying a strategy to follow a scent to its source. The fact ...

A scientific team supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) unveiled the first complete map of the neural connections of the common fruit fly brain. The map provides a wiring diagram, known ...

As a Ph.D. student, I wanted to understand the evolution of individual differences in fruit fly behavior—the building blocks of personality. My experiments involved measuring how my tiny subjects ...

With over 70 percent of respondents to a AAA annual survey on autonomous driving reporting they would fear being in a fully self-driving car, makers like Tesla may be back to the drawing board before ...

When it comes to understanding the inner workings of fruit flies, researchers at Tulane University have found an unlikely ally in the form of artificial intelligence (AI). Their newly developed AI ...

With over 70% of respondents to a AAA annual survey on autonomous driving reporting they would fear being in a fully self-driving car, makers like Tesla may be back to the drawing board before rolling ...

Assistant Professor Floris van Breugel and postdoctoral researcher David Stupski have uncovered an automatic behavior in flies, sink and circle, which involves lowering altitude and repetitive, rapid ...
