Now two weeks of data collection, but so far no time for quality control. This means a bunch of flies will likely drop out after I have been able to check for the quality of the reocrdings. So far, one group (red) seems to learn really well, while the other two are too early to tell.

Raw data avilable on the publication server.

In this project, one of the two experimental groups inhibits the ellipsoid body ring neurons using TNT-E. The second uses RNAi to knock down the DopR2 receptor in these neurons and the third is the driver control. As I am blind to the groups and it’s only been one week, the data are not terribly revealing, yet.

side bias can be compensated for by changing the positioning of the flies within the copper clamp from the medial to the lateral side facing away from the wall.
