[PDF][PDF] Global brain dynamics embed the motor command sequence of Caenorhabditis elegans
While isolated motor actions can be correlated with activities of neuronal networks, an
unresolved problem is how the brain assembles these activities into organized behaviors like …

Simultaneous whole-animal 3D imaging of neuronal activity using light-field microscopy
High-speed, large-scale three-dimensional (3D) imaging of neuronal activity poses a major
challenge in neuroscience. Here we demonstrate simultaneous functional imaging of …

Neuropeptide feedback modifies odor-evoked dynamics in Caenorhabditis elegans olfactory neurons
Many neurons release classical transmitters together with neuropeptide co-transmitters
whose functions are incompletely understood. Here we define the relationship between two …

[PDF][PDF] Temporal responses of C. elegans chemosensory neurons are preserved in behavioral dynamics
Animals track fluctuating stimuli over multiple timescales during natural olfactory behaviors.
Here, we define mechanisms underlying these computations in Caenorhabditis elegans. By …

[PDF][PDF] Soma-targeted imaging of neural circuits by ribosome tethering
Neuroscience relies on techniques for imaging the structure and dynamics of neural circuits,
but the cell bodies of individual neurons are often obscured by overlapping fluorescence …

[PDF][PDF] A set of hub neurons and non-local connectivity features support global brain dynamics in C. elegans
K Uzel, S Kato, M Zimmer - Current Biology, 2022 - cell.com
The wiring architecture of neuronal networks is assumed to be a strong determinant of their
dynamical computations. An ongoing effort in neuroscience is therefore to generate …

[PDF][PDF] Sleep is required to consolidate odor memory and remodel olfactory synapses
Animals with complex nervous systems demand sleep for memory consolidation and synaptic
remodeling. Here, we show that, although the Caenorhabditis elegans nervous system …

Regulation of two motor patterns enables the gradual adjustment of locomotion strategy in Caenorhabditis elegans
10.7554/eLife.14116.001 In animal locomotion a tradeoff exists between stereotypy and
flexibility: fast long-distance travelling (LDT) requires coherent regular motions, while local …

Optimization and scaling of patient-derived brain organoids uncovers deep phenotypes of disease
Cerebral organoids provide unparalleled access to human brain development in vitro.
However, variability induced by current culture methodologies precludes using organoids as …
