The primary psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, Δ 9 -tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ 9 -THC),
affects the brain mainly by activating a specific receptor (CB1). CB1 is expressed at high levels …

Olfactory space has a higher dimensionality than does any other class of sensory stimuli, and
the olfactory system receives input from an unusually large number of unique information …

In the olfactory system of Drosophila melanogaster, it is relatively straightforward to target in
vivo measurements of neural activity to specific processing channels. This, together with the …

Marijuana affects brain function primarily by activating the G-protein-coupled cannabinoid
receptor-1 (CB1) 1 , 2 , 3 , which is expressed throughout the brain at high levels 4 . Two …

For more than 100 years, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster has been one of the most
studied model organisms. Here, we present a single-cell atlas of the adult fly, Tabula …

In the insect olfactory system, oscillatory synchronization is functionally relevant and reflects
the coherent activation of dynamic neural assemblies. We examined the role of such …

1. A distinction must be made between the fat embolism syndrome, a clinical entity, and fat
embolism demonstrated pathologically, which may be found after death following fracture with …

We describe a paradigm for nociception in Drosophila. In response to the touch of a probe
heated above 38C, Drosophila larvae produce a stereotypical rolling behavior, unlike the …

Endocannabinoids are retrograde messengers released by neurons to modulate the strength
of their synaptic inputs. Endocannabinoids are thought to mediate the suppression of …

Molecular genetics has revealed a precise stereotypy in the projection of primary olfactory
sensory neurons onto secondary neurons. A major challenge is to understand how this …
