Context makes the difference: Temporally Resolved Dopaminergic Teaching Signals Shape Associative Memory in Drosophila Larvae

The paper shows how specific dopaminergic neurons in Drosophila larvae modulate memory formation through temporally precise signaling during learning.

A behavioral architecture for realistic simulations of Drosophila larva locomotion and foraging

This paper introduces a hierarchical model architecture for simulating Drosophila larva locomotion and foraging behaviors, enabling comparisons between empirical and simulated data.

Minimal circuit motifs for second-order conditioning in the insect mushroom body

The paper identifies minimal circuit motifs in the insect mushroom body that support second-order conditioning by analyzing how dopaminergic neurons are activated through different pathways.

Prediction error drives associative olfactory learning and conditioned behavior in a spiking model of Drosophila larva

The paper develops a spiking neural network model of Drosophila larva olfactory learning that uses prediction error to drive associative learning and behavior.

A neuromorphic model of olfactory processing and sparse coding in the Drosophila larva brain

This paper develops a neuromorphic model of olfactory processing in Drosophila larvae, showing how sparse coding and efficient encoding can be achieved through feedback inhibition and spike frequency adaptation in a small neural network.
