The paper studies mitochondrial structural diversity in C. elegans neuromuscular system across development using 3D electron microscopy and deep learning, finding correlations between mitochondrial properties and synaptic connections, and identifying stage-specific mitochondrial features in dauer.

The paper reconstructs the dauer connectome of nematodes to show how structural and connectivity changes in neurons lead to specific behaviors during developmental plasticity.

This study identifies dach-1, a cytochrome P450 gene, as a regulator of synaptic and developmental plasticity in C. elegans during the dauer stage, revealing its role in stress resistance and aldicarb sensitivity.

The paper identifies a novel serotonin-gated ion channel, LGC-50, essential for aversive olfactory learning in C. elegans.

This study identifies redundant neural circuits in C. elegans that regulate olfactory masking, where a repulsive odorant suppresses the response to attractive odorants.

The paper identifies modulatory signals in C. elegans that regulate multisensory integration during behavioral decisions involving attractive and repulsive cues.
