MetaBeeAI extracts structured evidence from biological literature using a modular LLM pipeline with expert validation, improving consistency and reproducibility across studies.

The paper shows airflow creates a complex activation pattern in honeybee antennal lobes, combining mechanical and olfactory codes to encode airflow intensity, direction, and dynamics.

The paper develops a hybrid neuronal model of dragonfly STMD neurons to test how dendritic morphology and NMDA receptor nonlinearities contribute to facilitation during target tracking.

This study shows that imidacloprid impairs motion detection in hoverfly neurons by altering firing rates, contrast sensitivity, and directional tuning.

This study compares transparency and shrinkage of insect brains using traditional and novel clearing methods, finding ethanol pre-treatment improves transparency and newer media reduce shrinkage.
