Researchers from our school have improved NeuroMechFly, a model simulating fruit fly movements. By integrating vision and smell, it explores brain-body interactions, paving the way for advancements in neuroengineering, robotics, and AI. go.epfl.ch/IDb-en

Watching these animals touch one another reveals just how rich inter-fly social interactions are... Victor Lobato Rios designed a novel two-photon microscopy recording system that allows us to record one fly's brain while it interacts with another fly

When Victor Lobato Rios first showed me videos like the one the left, with one female fly running way from the other female fly, I was stunned

I found Victor Lobato Rios's experiment with a fly and a beetle really clever. It tests whether, when flies becoming sociable towards one another, it is due to a general reduction in behavioral excitability or if it is specific to conspecific (same-species) interactions.

This is a really heroic experiment recording associative learning neurons in the fly brain over two hours while two flies interact with one another. This device and this approach can generally enable many more kinds of social interaction experiments
