1. A behavioural investigation into Eristalis tenax : Pursuit, approach estimation, locomotor activity and rearing
Sammanfattning : Hoverflies are suggested to be the 2nd most important pollinator group after bees and bumblebees, and with the changing climate and dwindling numbers of pollinators it might never have been more important understanding our pollinators. Given the hoverflies’ small brains, beautiful aerial acrobatics, good temporal resolution, but limited spatial resolution, these flies make interesting study animals for flight behaviour and vision research.

2. Functional Imaging of Spinal Locomotor Networks
Sammanfattning : Movement is necessary for the survival of most animals. The spinal cord contains neuronal networks that are capable of motor coordination and of producing different movements. In particular, a very reduced neuronal network in the spinal cord can produce simple rhythmic outputs even in the absence of descending or sensory inputs. LÄS MER
3. Crossing the Midline : Locomotor Neuronal Circuitry Formation
Sammanfattning : Networks at various levels of the nervous system coordinate different motor patterns such as respiration, eye or hand movements and locomotion. Intrinsic rhythm-generating networks that are located in the spinal cord generate motor behaviors that underlie locomotion in vertebrates. LÄS MER
4. Deciphering the Locomotor Network : The Role of Spinal Cord Interneurons
Sammanfattning : In the spinal cord, an intricate neural network generates and coordinates the patterning of limb movements during locomotion. This network, known as the locomotor central pattern generator (CPG), comprises of various cell populations that together orchestrate the output of motor neurons. LÄS MER
5. Swimming with the current : Fictive locomotion reveals subtle phenotypes in the zebrafish locomotor network
Sammanfattning : Neural networks are the functional building blocks of the central nervous system. To better understand how these networks develop and operate, we turned to the zebrafish locomotor network, with a focus on subtypes of interneurons expressing dmrt3a and wt1a. LÄS MER
