She cut the heads off of her flies.

They trained the escape reflex that makes the fly jump into the air and fly away whenever you move your hand in position.

Whenever a fly reaches the midpoint of the chamber where the two odor streams meet, it has to make a decision.

The animal jumps, it spreads its wings, it vibrates them, but it can't actually take off because the fly is sandwiched between two glass plates.

Now, David and Hidehiko and Ketaki gave a very compelling story about the similarities between fruit flies and humans, and there are many similarities, and so you might think that if humans are similar to fruit flies, the favorite behavior of a fruit fly might be this, for example but in my talk, I don't want to emphasize on the similarities between humans and fruit flies, but rather the differences, and focus on the behaviors that I think fruit flies excel at doing.

But the behavior of the fly on the left is very different.

So the next time the fly finds itself facing the same odor again, the connection is strong enough to turn on the motors and to trigger an evasive maneuver.

So I want you to look at the payload at the tail of the fruit fly.

And then we took these flies and allowed them to make choices.

This means that the Critic must have spoken in that animal, and that the Critic must be contained among the dopamine producing neurons on the left, but not among the dopamine producing neurons on the right.

If the connection is weak, the motors will stay off and the fly will continue straight on its course.

Each chamber in these two vertical stacks contains one fly.

If the connection is strong, the motors will turn on and the fly will initiate a turn.

If the Critic was among the optically activated cells, the result of this intervention should be a change in policy.

The fly should learn to avoid the optically reinforced odor.

Are you spider or fly?

Here's a fly and a large infrared view of the fly in the flight simulator, and this is a game the flies love to play.

Anyway, as you'll see in a moment, Susana was able to turn on the flight motor of what's the equivalent of the spinal cord of these flies and get some of the headless bodies to actually take off and fly away.

There was a fly.

If you change this hormone pathway in flies, they live longer.

And he could shoot it from two rooms away and not damage what it was on because he knew how to pump it just enough to kill the fly and not damage what it landed on.

So at least you'll admit that if fruit flies are not as clever as mice, they're at least as clever as pigeons.

And these are flytrap anemones.

And that is the case in flies.

So flies love this.

And blowflies just can't help themselves.

Dinner's in there

In the ointment you're the fly

Not a fly.

This is a Dionaea, a Venus fly trap hunting snails sorry for the snail.

There's a fly in the noodle broth.

Mosquito and fly, they are big

If you mean little Bartholomew, his mama brushes girls like you aside like flies.

Optically activating these hundred or so cells into two strains of flies has dramatically different consequences.

A small mutation can take a two wing fly and make it a four wing fly.

But I would argue that flies do more.

They're out there, thicker than flies.

And swat us away like flies, the way we swat away flies when we go into the rainforest and start logging it.

They fly in and they pollinate.

Michael Dickinson How a fly flies

That's ridiculous, she wouldn't kill a fl

I'm not even gonna swat that fly.

The engine of the fly is absolutely fascinating.

They're a great model for flies.

We'll calculate the Trump number for the fruit fly.
