Hydra vulgaris shows stable responses to thermal stimulation despite large changes in the number of neurons

Summary: Many animals that lose neural tissue to injury or disease can maintain behavioral repertoires by regenerating new neurons or reorganizing existing neural circuits. However, most neuroscience small model organisms lack this high degree of neural plasticity. We show that Hydra vulgaris can ma...
