Mahadevane, John Thomas, Ben Statton, Uday Patel, Philip Lung, Bernhard Kainz, Irene Miguel-AliagaIrene Miguel-AliagaThe gut tube of flies and humans is longer than the body so must fold and coil in order to fit into the abdomen. Does the gut fold into a stereotypical defined shape or is it random? Gut length differs between male and female flies - does gut shape also differ? Is gut shape important for gut function?
To answer these questions we developed 3D imaging methods and 3D image analysis techniques.
