Fine-scale behavioural dynamics separates adaptive sickness behaviour from injury and infection pathology

Alejandro V. Cano, Dhobasheni Newman, Katy M. Monteith…·Pedro F. Vale

This study identifies adaptive sickness behaviours in Drosophila by analyzing fine-scale activity patterns during infection, injury, and immune stimulation.

Activity dynamics allow early discrimination of infection-related survival outcomes

Megan A. M. Kutzer, Shima Abdullateef, Alejandro V. Cano…·Pedro F. Vale

The paper uses dynamical statistical indicators of locomotor activity in Drosophila to predict infection-related mortality with high accuracy using a Random Forest model.
