How the brain and the circadian clock shape behaviour

How the brain and the circadian clock shape behaviour is the fundamental question behind our research projects. Our primary model system is the genetically amenable fruit fly, though we also do work on other insects. For more information on the current lines of research, please check out the links below for the different groups at our chair.
