Visual circuitry for distance estimation in Drosophila

Joseph W. Shomar, Elizabeth Wu, Braedyn Au…·Damon A. Clark

This study identifies visual projection neurons in Drosophila that encode parallax signals for distance estimation during free locomotion, showing both direction-selective and non-direction-selective neurons contribute to this process.

Long timescale anti-directional rotation in Drosophila optomotor behavior

Omer Mano, Minseung Choi, Ryosuke Tanaka…·Damon A. Clark

This study shows that Drosophila can suppress and reverse optomotor turning in response to specific visual stimuli, indicating complex dynamics beyond simple reflexes.
