Description

This NIH grant opportunity focuses on the neural mechanisms of spatial navigation and multisensory integration in Drosophila. The project aims to understand how visual cues such as polarization and sky color are integrated to form an unambiguous heading direction. It seeks to elucidate neural circuit mechanisms at the neuron and synapse level. The research is conducted by Columbia University Health Sciences under the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS).
