The University of Arizona: College of Science Lecture Series – From Fruit Flies to Future Cures: How Tiny Insects are Driving Big Discoveries in Brain Science
Insects outnumber humans by billions and predated us on earth. While we diverged early in the evolutionary tree, we still share a vast majority of our genetic sequences, making studies of the insect nervous system insightful for understanding the building blocks of learning, memory, motion, aggression, and development of complex organs like the brain.
