Globally, over 350 million people are at risk of infection from Leishmaniasis. The mating habits of the female sand fly may offer a way to fight it.

The way insects land upside down in the blink of an eye could inspire the next generation of robots, researchers say.

A single genetic mutation both turns male fruit flies yellow and keeps them from mating effectively. How is that possible? Sex combs.

Some flies learn faster than others but a new look at their genes may explain the difference.

The way fruit flies navigate the world isn't as simple as you might think. Now, researchers understand more about their surprisingly complex calculations.
