This position forms part of the Wellcome Trust Discovery Award programme “Decoding Competition in the Brain”. The programme is driven by recent advances revealing how neuromodulatory circuits dynamically reshape decision-making under conflict (Cazalé-Debat, Scheunemann et al., Nature 2024; Day & Rezaval, Curr. Opin. Neurobiol. 2026), and how competitive pressure reconfigures behavioural priorities (unpublished work). Using Drosophila melanogaster, we combine quantitative behavioural paradigms with neural circuit mapping, advanced genetics, two-photon functional imaging, and molecular approaches to uncover fundamental principles governing behavioural choice.
