GTRセミナー / アドバンス生命理学特論
Salk Institute (米国) でラボを構える朝比奈
健太博士をお招きしてGTRセミナーを開催します。朝比奈博士は動物行動を制御する脳の仕組みにご興味を持ち、主にショウジョウバエをモデルとした研究を進めています。特に社会行動を制御する神経機構のご研究を精力的に進められ、攻撃行動や逃避行動などの分野で、優れた成果を出されています。奮ってご参加ください。
We will hold a GTR seminar. The Speaker, Dr. Kenta Asahina, is interested in the neuronal mechanism of animal behavior, especially complex social interaction behaviors. His is also interested in expanding the research scope to comparative genomics, evolutionary ethology and social behaviors. Pre-registration is not required, and we encourage graduate students to join.

演題要旨:
An optimal choice of behavior during social interactions depends on both internal needs and behavioral responses from the other individual. A major goal of our lab is to understand molecular and neuronal mechanisms that support the cost-benefit calculations during social interactions, using fighting behaviors of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.
Despite its compact nervous system, we and others found that the flies adjust the intensity and duration to fight based on both internal and external conditions. I will specifically discuss our recent progresses in two research areas: 1) a neural mechanism underlying social defeat, and 2) neuropeptidergic modulation of aggressive behavior by nutritional deficits.
