Functional Neurogenetics: ​​

From Genes to Molecules to Cells to Behavior
What's going on
  1. Topics
    Topics
    We study the genetic, molecular and functional basis how nervous systems integrate sensory information to modulate or control diverse types of behaviours.
  2. Models
    Models
    The fruit fly serves as our powerful genetic core model. We transfer genetic tools to non-canonical models including the starlet anemone Nematostella and acoel worms.
  3. Techniques
    Techniques
    An array of genetic techniques (CRISPR/Cas9, transgenesis) is combined with optogenetics, life-imaging, behavioral analysis and single-cell transcriptomics.
