Understanding the connection between behavior and brain cell activity is a major goal of neuroscience. To make progress, ...

In a crowded room, we naturally move slower than in an empty space. Surprisingly, worms can show the exact opposite behavior: in an environment with randomly scattered obstacles, they tend to move ...

New findings on the brain activity of the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans have been released by researchers. The scientists were able to show that brain cells (neurons), organized in a brain-wide ...

A team of scientists has definitely given a new meaning to the term "glow worm." Researchers at Princeton have released a video of the neural activity found in the brains of nematode worms — all to a ...
