I am thrilled to share the published version of our study on how neuropeptide signals regulate feeding in the hypothalamus! We imaged endogenous peptide signals in subcellular compartments during behavior. Below is an updated summary: rdcu.be/dZlI3

The fly has a full #connectome, basically a directed + weighted graph. But what are its connection ‘signs’, excitatory/inhibitory? We move towards this answer, predicting transmitters from EM! w/@BobQubit, vid @amyneurons, 1/n Published @CellCellPress: cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…
