TL;DR: An exclusion limit on the H→invisible branching ratio of 0.26(0.17_{-0.05}^{+0.07}) at 95% confidence level is observed (expected) in combination with the results at sqrt[s]=7 and 8 TeV.

TL;DR: It is shown that it is possible to uncover representations of sensory input and motor output in individual neurons of behaving animals from brainwide dynamics and an imaging setup and analysis pipeline should facilitate mapping circuits for sensory to motor transformation in transparent behaving animals such as C. elegans and Drosophila larva.

TL;DR: It is shown that one of the most evolutionarily deeply conserved receptors, IR93a, is co-expressed and functions with IR21a and IR25a to mediate physiological and behavioral responses to cool temperatures and is identified as a common component of molecularly and cellularly distinct IR pathways important for thermosensation and hygrosensation in insects.

TL;DR: It is shown that DOCC cool-sensing is mediated by Ionotropic Receptors (IRs), a family of sensory receptors widely studied in invertebrate chemical sensing, and that two IRs, IR21a and IR25a, are required to mediate DOCC responses to cooling and are required for cool avoidance behavior.

TL;DR: A previously unidentified set of thermosensory neurons embedded in the olfactory organ of the Drosophila larva is shown to be required to drive the animal up temperature gradients toward preferred environments.
