Excited to release this new pre-print (🎉 In a complex visual environment, how do flies (like below) know what to focus on?. We uncovered neuronal pathways through which social states (like aggression🥊 and courtship) modulate visual processing. 1/

Previous work revealed the importance of the same visual feature detectors (LC10a) in male courtship. In a collaboration with Vanessa Ruta and @TSHindmarsh, we found that one of these same pathways is involved in male courtship pursuit as well. 4/.

This was exciting as it suggests this subset alters the flow of visual information in order to continue aggression. Using different methods (connectomics, patch clamp, imaging, behavior), we revealed 3 motifs by which this female aggression subset modulates visual pathways. 3/.

When we were wrapping up our work on a circuit underlying female aggression, we found that ~ 50% of the downstream targets of female aggression neurons (aIPg) receive visual information. 2/.
