Fruit flies actively restart their circadian clock by proactively shaping their environment

This study shows fruit flies actively maintain circadian rhythms by shaping their environment, leading to better sleep and rhythmic behavior.

Hsp90 buffers behavioral plasticity by regulating Pdf transcription in clock neurons of Drosophila melanogaster

This study shows HSP83 regulates Pdf transcription in clock neurons, affecting behavioral plasticity and circadian rhythms in Drosophila under stress.

Real time, in vivo measurement of neuronal and peripheral clocks in Drosophila melanogaster

The paper develops a method to measure circadian clocks in live Drosophila and shows that peripheral clocks can oscillate independently of the brain clock.

The opposing Chloride Cotransporters KCC and NKCC control locomotor activity inconstant light and during long days.

This study shows that KCC and NKCC cotransporters regulate GABA responses and locomotor activity in Drosophila under constant light and long days through a feedback loop involving Wnk and Fray kinases.

Less is more: Light sampling via throttled visual phototransduction robustly synchronizes the Drosophila circadian clock in the absence of Cryptochrome

The paper shows that a slow visual phototransduction pathway contributes to circadian clock synchronization in Drosophila without requiring Cryptochrome.

Open Source LED controller for circadian experiments

The paper presents an open-source LED controller for circadian experiments using Arduino and LED strips to reduce costs.
