Neural Navigators: How MIT Cracked the Code That Relates Brain and Behavior in a Simple Animal

Posted by in categories: education, engineering, neuroscience

MIT researchers have created a detailed map of neuron activity in the C. elegans worm, revealing how neurons encode behavior. Using cutting-edge technology, they discovered neurons’ capability to adjust their encoding based on various factors and conditions. Their findings provide a comprehensive neural behavior atlas for further studies.
