The other PhD position is a collaboration with @LabDarren and will focus on how sensory systems organise and compute information, as well as how they assemble during development, using as a model the taste system of D. melanogaster. crick.ac.uk/careers-study/va…

The team of Pavan @ramdya and EPFL-STI colleagues have developed an implantation technique that allows unprecedented optical access to the “spinal cord” of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. Congratulations to this amazing work! actu.epfl.ch/news/a-window-i… #epfl
