A dynamical circuit model for C. elegans chemotaxis with emergent sharp turns

With 302 neurons and a rigorously characterized connectome, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans represents a powerful model organism to study the fundamental roles of neuronal circuits in behavior.

With 302 neurons and a rigorously characterized connectome, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans represents a powerful model organism to study the fundamental roles of neuronal circuits in behavior. However, despite the breadth of research, many questions remain unanswered…
