The common fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, is a well studied and highly tractable genetic
model organism for understanding molecular mechanisms of human diseases. Many basic …

Humans consume a wide range of foods, drugs, and dietary supplements that are derived
from plants and which modify the functioning of the central nervous sytem (CNS). The …

Medicine is an ever-changing science. As new research and clinical experience broaden
our knowledge, changes in treatment and drug therapy are required. The authors and the …

We present a camera-based method for automatically quantifying the individual and social
behaviors of fruit flies, Drosophila melanogaster, interacting in a planar arena. Our system …

Over two hundred billion black soldier flies (BSF, Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae))
are reared annually across the globe, with the industry projected to grow substantially in the …

Drosophila melanogaster has been widely used in classical and modern genetics for more
than 100 years. The history of the Drosophila model in the study of various aspects of life …

Foraging‐and feeding‐related behaviors across eumetazoans share similar molecular
mechanisms, suggesting the early evolution of an optimal foraging behavior called area …

Psychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine are concerned with medical conditions affecting
brain, mind and behaviour in manifold ways. Traditional approaches have focused on a …

Results from studies using molecular and genetic methods in humans and rodents suggest
