This paper introduces an optimized appetitive visual short-term memory paradigm in Drosophila that requires fewer flies and replicates than previous methods.

This study identifies dFB neurons as sleep-regulating cells in Drosophila, showing they promote sleep and are neurochemically heterogeneous.

This study shows that enhancing sleep restores memory in flies with damaged Mushroom Bodies, revealing a role for circadian rhythms in memory impairment.

The paper shows that dFB neurons in Drosophila adjust their response properties based on environmental demands and prior metabolic challenges to regulate sleep drive.

The paper identifies two antimicrobial peptides that regulate long-term memory in Drosophila but not short-term memory or instinctive behavior.
