Structure and Function of the Insect Mushroom Body
Conference - Ashburn, VA, United States
The insect mushroom body (MB) has been shown to be involved in a variety of behaviors, such as olfactory learning and memory, sleep and decision-making. This meeting will bring together leading investigators to address the anatomy, behavioral roles, physiology and evolution of MBs in various insect species. Presentations and discussions will cover current approaches for studying MBs in the areas of anatomy, biochemistry, electrophysiology and functional imaging in an effort to reveal MB function in a circuit model of the insect brain.
