Neuroengineering Laboratory @ EPFL - Ramdya Lab

We are reverse-engineering the fly, Drosophila melanogaster, to understand how animals generate flexible motor behaviors, leverage social information, and learn about the world. We believe that our efforts will uncover general insights into biological intelligence and can inform the design of better artificial systems and robots.

Flies are ideal for this goal: they generate complex behaviors yet have a small nervous system and are genetically malleable. For our research, we develop and use a variety of approaches including microscopy, machine learning, genetics, and computational modeling. We are part of the Brain Mind Institute and Institute of Bioengineering in the School of Life Sciences at EPFL, Switzerland 🇨🇭.
