This study shows how Xenopus laevis tadpoles use specialized motor rhythms and body mechanics to escape capture by generating reactive forces through direct mechanical interactions.

The paper builds whole-body computer models of frog tadpoles to study decision-making mechanisms and reproduces realistic swimming behavior through integration of neural and biomechanical systems.

The paper develops computational models of C. elegans neurons and pharyngeal muscle cells to reproduce Ca²⁺-driven action potentials using the NEURON simulation environment.
