John Tuthill is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at the University of Washington. His lab combines genetic tools with electrophysiology and optical imaging to understand how the fly brain senses the body and controls behavior. In 2017, John was named a Klingenstein-Simons Fellow, Alfred P. Sloan Fellow and Searle Scholar.Presented online via Zoom and in-person at 11:15 a.m. on November 7, 2022 in the Krone Engineered Biosystems Building, Room 1005.Runtime: 56:37 minute
