“…Collectively, these different tools and approaches can be used to study the rich set of innate behaviors performed by flies such as walking, flight, grooming, feeding, mating, fighting, and escape. Moreover, behavioral and circuit-based studies in flies have provided new insights into basic topics in neuroscience such as learning and memory, sensory-motor integration, neuromodulation, sleep, behavioral choice, behavioral sequencing, motor control, and sensory systems (Huston and Owald et al 2015;Hoopfer 2016;Masek and Keene 2016;McKellar 2016). Given that many of the tools used to study neural circuits have only recently become available, we anticipate that the coming years will experience a rapid growth in our understanding of how neural circuits within the fruit fly nervous system are organized to produce particular behaviors.…”
