We provide him with multiple cat beds, cushioned cat trees, blankets, pillows, mattresses...

... but he chooses to sleep like this.

WRITER FUEL: People report vivid dreams during rapid-eye-movement sleep. But is this sleep stage really the only time we dream?

Hello #Neuroscience mastodon,

we have a BBSRC funded #Phd position open!
A cool project utilise #Drosophila transcriptome and connectome to map out the novel #sleep controlling visual pathway!

see details here:

please boost and spread the words!

* same research theme is also eligible for CSC funding

I am very happy to be part of this work with my old UCL mate Simon Lowe and James Jepson, showing that sleep and habituation are linked! #drosophila #sleep #habituation

It was pretty surprising at the time when I first noticed sleep level in Nca mutants can be modified by daylight length! Which leads to my research focus on visually driven #sleep
Part of this investigation are preprint here:
