Intestinal control of feeding initiation in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i>
2025-04-03
Abstract excerpt
The interplay between feeding and excretion is essential for organismal nutrition and survival, yet their mechanistic coupling remains poorly understood. At the onset of life, feeding must be initiated while developmental waste products – the meconium – need to be eliminated. Using Drosophila as a model system, we explored the in vivo mechanisms coordinating these processes. We developed novel behavioral assays fo...
