Japanese studies on neural circuits and behavior of Caenorhabditis elegans
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is an ideal organism for studying neural plasticity and animal behaviors. A total of 302 neurons of a C. elegans hermaphrodite have been classified into 118 neuronal groups. This simple neural circuit provides a solid basis for understanding the mecha...
