The thermosensory neuron AFD unexpectedly modulates locomotion based on tactile experience through molecular and circuit mechanisms distinct from those underlying thermosensation.
Apparent neural encoding of future words may arise from the statistical structure of language itself, rather than from predictive computations in the brain.
Behavioral analyses combined with genetics revealed that Caenorhabditis elegans uses an olfactory receptor-ligand module to forage for essential nutrients.
