I am excited to share our new publication in @pnas.org on the de novo nerve net assembly in Hydra embryos showing that neural circuits self-assemble through activity-driven processes, modulated by temperature and the microbiome. Thanks to all colleagues involved here! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Assembly of a functional neuronal circuit in embryos of an ancestral metazoan is influenced by temperature and the microbiome | PNAS
Understanding how neural populations emerge to give rise to behavior is a major goal
in neuroscience. Here, we explore the self-assembly of neural ...
