Using C. elegans as a Platform for Multimodal Neural Data
Talk, MIT, Department of Brain & Cognitive Sciences, Room 46-3310, Cambridge, Massachusetts
This talk explores how the nematode C. elegans presents an opportunity for integrating multiple dimensions of neural function. With only 302 neurons, complete connectome mapping, optical transparency, and genetic tractability, C. elegans enables comprehensive study across three fundamental modalities: molecular genetic profiles, network connectivity, and neural activity dynamics.
