Sleep regulates visual selective attention in <i>Drosophila</i>

2018-08-29

Abstract excerpt

Although sleep-deprivation is known to impair attention in humans and other mammals, the underlying reasons are not well understood, and whether similar effects are present in non-mammalian species is not known. We therefore sought to investigate whether sleep is important for optimising attention in an invertebrate species, the genetic model Drosophila melanogaster . We developed a high-throughput paradigm to me...
