If placed in a dark, featureless world, what does a fly do? Does it move randomly, or is there underlying structure to its movements? How do different visual features change this behavior? By recording the behavior of hundreds of fruit flies, we can create mathematical models of their motion. These models allows us to make testable predictions of the underlying neural circuits controlling behavior. Part of our Wandering Fly collection, this is an image of a single fruit fly walking around a virtual reality arena. The arrows represent the position and direction the fly is facing at any given moment. Learn more about the research >>

Luke Brezovec is a Stanford University PhD Neuroscience candidate. He is interested in how neural circuits communicate with each other. Specifically, what is the structure of the interface between brain areas that process visual information and those that ultimately control behavior? To explore this question, he records the neural activity of the entire brain of the fruit fly, drosophila, while it explores virtual worlds. Shop Luke's other collections >>
