Feedback inhibition and its control in an insect olfactory circuit
eLife, 2020 Inhibitory neurons play critical roles in regulating and shaping olfactory responses in vertebrates and invertebrates. In insects, these roles are performed by relatively few neurons, which can be interrogated efficiently, revealing fundamental ...

Redundant neural vision systems: competing for collision recognition roles [PDF]
, 2013 Ability to detect collisions is vital for future robots that interact with humans in complex visual environments. Lobula giant movement detectors (LGMD) and directional selective neurons (DSNs) are two types of identified neurons found in the visual ...

The Faraday Scalpel: Electrochemical Nerve Lesioning Mechanisms Studied in Invertebrate Models
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Direct‐current produces nerve lesioning through discrete electrochemical reactions. Using hypoxia‐sensitive locust nerves and hypoxia‐tolerant leech nerves, we map three injury pathways: cathodic oxygen reduction, cathodic alkalization, and anodic chloride oxidation. These findings establish electrochemical lesioning—the “Faraday Scalpel”—as a precise,

Linking vegetation indexes from remote sensing and long-term prospection data to help in the preventative control of desert locust : O401M19 IPM [PDF]
, 2012 Desert Locust management is nowadays done through a preventative control strategy that consists in avoiding populations to reach high densities and a gregarization process leading to uncontrollable swarms.

A modified model for the Lobula Giant Movement Detector and its FPGA implementation [PDF]
, 2010 The Lobula Giant Movement Detector (LGMD) is a wide-field visual neuron located in the Lobula layer of the Locust nervous system. The LGMD increases its firing rate in response to both the velocity of an approaching object and the proximity of this ...

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Invertebrates are the classic neuroscience models and should make a comeback. Invertebrate organisms can be a more ethical and cost‐effective way to move bioelectronics research forward more rapidly. ABSTRACT The accelerating development of bioelectronic neural interfaces has brought increased attention to ethical considerations surrounding in vivo ...
