Shiu, P. K. et al. A Drosophila computational brain model reveals sensorimotor processing. Nature 634 (2024). The leaky integrate and fire parameter set used here, and the demonstration that a connectome constrained model of this kind predicts real fly behaviour.

Klapoetke, N. C. et al. Ultra-selective looming detection from radial motion opponency. Nature 551 (2017). LPLC2 and why it responds to expansion and not to translation.

Ache, J. M. et al. Neural basis for looming size and velocity encoding in the Drosophila giant fiber escape pathway. Current Biology 29 (2019). LC4 carries angular velocity, LPLC2 carries angular size, both into the giant fiber.
