About FlyFizz

FlyFizz is an evolving webspace dedicated to enabling the exchange of information relating to one growing subfield of Drosophila brain physiology: understanding how neural circuits generate behavior by applying electrophysiological and optical imaging techniques, particularly in behaving flies. We hope this space will become a repository for supplemental information regarding published techniques, as well as a community forum for discussion, software distribution and job postings.
