A fruitful endeavor: Modeling ALS in the fruit fly [PDF]
Brain Research, 2015 For over a century Drosophila melanogaster, commonly known as the fruit fly, has been instrumental in genetics research and disease modeling. In more recent years, it has been a powerful tool for modeling and studying neurodegenerative diseases, including the devastating and fatal amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Mechanisms of vision in the fruit fly [PDF]
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2019 Vision is essential to maximize the efficiency of daily tasks such as feeding, avoiding predators or finding mating partners. An advantageous model is Drosophila melanogaster, since it offers tools that allow genetic and neuronal manipulation with high spatial and temporal resolution, which can be combined with behavioral, anatomical and physiological ...

Imaging mitophagy in the fruit fly [PDF]
Autophagy, 2018 Loss-of-function mutations in the genes encoding PRKN/parkin and PINK1 cause autosomal recessive Parkinson disease (PD). Seminal work in Drosophila revealed that loss of park/parkin and Pink1 causes prominent mitochondrial pathology in flight muscle and, to a lesser extent, in dopaminergic neurons.
