Peering Into a Fly's Brain (IMAGE)
Caption
Seeing into a fly’s brain: Neurobiologists use state-of-the-art methods to observe the activity of nerve cells while the fly sees moving stripe patterns on a LED screen (left). This technique enables the scientists to observe the response of single cells in the brain area which processes motion information (right, scale = 20 micrometer).
