Seeking voluntary passive movement in flies is play-like behavior

The paper shows vinegar flies engage in play-like behavior by voluntarily seeking passive movement on a spinning platform.

Long-lasting impact of starvation experience on fly activity and place preference

This study investigates how starvation history affects fly locomotion and food preference using a novel tracking setup and finds long-lasting reduced activity and delayed food preference in starved flies.

The PEDtracker: an automatic staging approach for Drosophila melanogaster larvae

The PEDtracker system automatically detects developmental stages in Drosophila melanogaster larvae using behavioral analysis and provides tools for automated developmental screening.

Olfactory object recognition based on fine-scale stimulus timing in Drosophila

This study shows that Drosophila can segregate odorants from different sources using fine-scale timing differences, similar to how humans use temporal cues for sound and figure-ground segregation.
