Summary

This is a model for a Drosophila (melanogaster) behavioral arena, based on the design of Jasper C. Simon and Michael H. Dickinson published in PLoS ONE in 2010 : A New Chamber for Studying the Behavior of Drosophila (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0008793)

The size of the model matches the original size proposed in the manuscript.

How I Designed This

Read the Jasper Simon's manuscriptrn2. Found it great rn3. Designed the model using Sketchuprn4. Printed in ABS and PLArn5. Using it now !
