Drosophila

Researchers from the Oregon State University have revealed that the damaging effects of the blue light emanating from bright displays worsen as one gets older. To reach the conclusion, the team conducted an experiment on Drosophila melanogaster or the common fruit fly.

The researchers claim to have found a single neuron in the brain, which gets activated when sugar/food is consumed and is able to monitor and control sugar levels in the body. The team carried out the study on Drosophila, the vinegar fly.

Opening new opportunities for scientists to find treatments for cancer, Australian researchers have uncovered the role played by a gene which suppresses the development of cancer.
