The CNC is excited to continue to grow our Allen collaborations to advance our understanding of the brain within the Weill umbrella. Congratulations to the Allen Institute on joining the Weill Neurohub.

Humans run millions of miles on treadmills each year, but sadly no one thought to build a linear treadmill for fruit flies. We decided to fix this oversight. Along the way, we discovered how flies adapt their walking to persevere in difficult situations.🧵
