Congratulations to the Chatzigeorgiou lab @mchatzigeorgiou.bsky.social for a new preprint 🤩👏 @midlangandreas.bsky.social and team studied the mechanical forces at play during #Ciona postembryonic development, and found links to larval chemosensation and settlement behavior 🧪 Read the article ⤵️
Mechanics regulate the postembryonic developmental maturation and function of sensory neurons in a pre-vertebrate chordate
Physical forces are emerging as important contributors to a wide diversity of biological processes across multiple scales and contexts. The development of the nervous system is infuenced by mechanical...

Our latest preprint is out! @olegtolstenkov.bsky.social did a great job in dissecting Ciona larval rheotaxis behavior. He also mapped the underlying neuronal circuit. We also include some insightful mathematical modelling from our collaborators Ayumi Ozawa and Tetsuya Hiraiwa.

📣 New preprint from the @mchatzigeorgiou.bsky.social lab, led by @olegtolstenkov.bsky.social 👏🧪 Using a combination of behavioral and computational analyses, the authors show that #Ciona can process detailed information about water flow and perform rheotaxis 🧠 Read the full story ⤵️
The cellular and behavioral blueprints of chordate rheotaxis.
The oceans are filled with life-forms exhibiting complex adaptations to help navigate fluid environments and take advantage of fluid motion to locomote and disperse. However, the neuronal and behavior...
