The ability of animals to flexibly navigate through complex environments depends on the
integration of sensory information with motor commands. The sensory modality most tightly …

Vision is critical for the control of locomotion, but the underlying neural mechanisms by
which visuomotor circuits contribute to the movement of the body through space are yet not …

To investigate circuit mechanisms underlying locomotor behavior, we used serial-section
electron microscopy (EM) to acquire a synapse-resolution dataset containing the ventral …

Knowing one's own behavioral state has long been theorized as critical for contextualizing
dynamic sensory cues and identifying appropriate future behaviors. Ascending neurons …

In neural networks that store information in their connection weights, there is a tradeoff
between sensitivity and stability,. Connections must be plastic to incorporate new …

Innate behaviors are frequently comprised of ordered sequences of component actions that
progress to satisfy essential drives. Progression is governed by specialized sensory cues …

1416-Pos Modulation of Human Stem Cell Derived Neuron Activity through Addition of an
External Conductance using Dynamic Clamp Brian K. Panama1, Leigh Korbel1, Brandon …

The Drosophila ventral nerve cord (VNC) receives and processes descending signals from
the brain to produce a variety of coordinated locomotor outputs. It also integrates sensory …

Adhesion G-protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) bear notable similarity to Notch proteins, a
class of surface receptors poised for mechano-proteolytic activation,–, including an …

Our companion paper introduces the first completely proofread connectome of the nerve
cord of an animal that can walk or fly. The base connectome consists of neuronal …
