The first paper from the lab is out on biorxiv - enjoy reading! Social context and interactions influence our behavioral decisions - the same is true for the little fly larva!

Creamy potato chips and slimy apples - at least for humans, that doesn't seem tasty. Also the fruit fly larva is picky and prefers a certain food hardness: enjoy reading more about that in the primer I wrote for the recent paper from the @simon-sprecher.bsky.social lab.
