My scientific aspiration is to elucidate the genetic and circuit basis of sensory perception, sensorimotor integration, and behavioral decisions subject to the changing environment, individual experiences, and physiological alterations. This aspiration originated from my graduate studies on neural aging and my postdoctoral studies on decision-making behaviors in an animal with its whole genome sequenced and full circuit connectivity revealed: the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Here at the Tanimoto Lab, I am thrilled to apply my knowledge about C. elegans to the future directions dedicated to advancing our understanding of sensory representation and decision-making behaviors subject to physiological alterations using the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.
