Experimental platform to study the neuronal mechanisms of magnetoreception in the honey bee.

This paper develops an experimental platform to study magnetoreception in honey bees using two-photon calcium imaging and magnetic stimulation to test the radical pair mechanism.

Neuronal correlates of sleep in honey bees

This study identifies neuronal activity patterns during rest in honey bees that resemble sleep signatures in vertebrates, revealing conserved network modulation mechanisms.

Differential coding of fruit, leaf, and microbial odours in the brains of Drosophila suzukii and Drosophila melanogaster.

The paper investigates how Drosophila suzukii and D. melanogaster encode different odours in their antennal lobes and assesses the resulting behavioural responses.

Temporal dynamics of honeybee learning and decision-making are revealed by a novel automated PER system

This paper introduces an automated PER system for honeybees that improves standardization and behavioral scoring, revealing temporal dynamics in learning and decision-making.

Network plasticity in the honey bee antennal lobe during odor presentation

The paper investigates network plasticity in the honey bee antennal lobe during odor presentation, showing odor-specific changes in functional connectivity.

Geosmin suppresses defensive behaviour and elicits unusual neural responses in honey bees.

This study investigates how geosmin affects honey bee defensive behavior and neural responses, finding concentration-dependent suppression of alarm pheromone-induced aggression.

Multisite imaging of neural activity using a genetically encoded calcium sensor in the honey bee

The paper develops a genetically encoded calcium sensor for imaging neural activity in honey bees and uses it to study odor coding in different brain regions.

All-optical manipulation of the Drosophila olfactory system.

This paper develops optogenetic tools to stimulate Drosophila's olfactory system and uses calcium imaging to study neural activity and connectivity.

Neural correlates for neonicotinoid-induced impairment of olfactory long-term memory

This study shows that imidacloprid, a neonicotinoid pesticide, impairs long-term memory in honey bees by disrupting synaptic pruning in mushroom bodies.

Parallel processing of olfactory and mechanosensory information in the honeybee antennal lobe.

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.

Automated quantification of synaptic boutons reveals their 3D distribution in the honey bee mushroom body

The paper develops an automated method to quantify synaptic boutons in honey bee mushroom bodies, revealing their 3D distribution and correcting previous overestimations.
