...that hypotheses generated from theory, biochemistry, molecular biology, neuroanatomy, and/or neurophysiology can be validated at the behavioural level. Therefore, this project will develop RNAi knockdown techniques and use behavioural tests in orientation cages under meticulously controlled static and time-dependent magnetic fields to test predictions made by the signal detection and neural processing sections. The obtained results will feed back lessons learned from behaviour to the sections the hypotheses originated from.
