A neuromechanical model for Drosophila larval crawling based on physical measurements

Abstract Background Animal locomotion requires dynamic interactions between neural circuits, the body (typically muscles), and surrounding environments. While the neural circuitry of movement has been intensively studied, how these outputs are integrated with body mechanics (neuromechanics) is less...
