A new method of recording from the giant fiber of Drosophila melanogaster shows that the strength of its auditory inputs remains constant with age.
There have been relatively few studies of how central synapses age in adult Drosophila melanogaster. In this study we investigate the aging of the synaptic inputs to the Giant Fiber (GF) from auditory Johnston's Organ neurons (JONs). In previously published experiments an indirect assay of this...
