The paper shows that nonlinear sensory integration in C. elegans creates configural olfactory representations, linking neural dynamics to perceptual outcomes.

SegBio provides a lightweight, user-friendly pipeline for instance segmentation of crowded biological images, achieving high performance on C. elegans datasets.

The paper shows that synaptic clusters form early in C. elegans neural development and persist, supporting key functional roles in neural circuits and motor behavior.

This study identifies LITE-1 as a chemoreceptor in C. elegans that mediates both blue light and diacetyl avoidance behaviors.

The paper examines the neuroanatomy of C. elegans mutants and finds that unc-13 mutants have aberrant head sensory neuron positioning, while unc-31 mutants do not.

The paper shows how C. elegans uses dynamic neuron interactions to enhance discrimination of similar chemical stimuli despite having a limited number of sensory neurons.

This study identifies how associative memories are encoded in C. elegans neural networks, showing short-term memories are in sensory systems while long-term memories are in inner layers.

The paper examines synaptic organization in C. elegans neurons and finds that synapses cluster along neurites, supporting local compartmentalized computations.

The paper shows how a GPCR negative feedback loop in C. elegans enables efficient encoding of complex chemical stimuli through adaptation and gradient sensitivity.

This study shows that associative memories in C. elegans can be inherited across generations, providing a fitness advantage through stress response activation.

The paper identifies unique transcriptional signatures in the mouse brain that represent distinct salient experiences and their affective attributes.
