Role of Adaptation in C. elegans thermotaxis. Focus on “Short-Term Adaptation and Temporal Processing in the Cryophilic Response of Caenorabditis elegans”

Abstract

From honeybee foraging to bird migration, the orientation of animals in their environments is vital for survival and provides opportunities for studying the neural mechanisms that underlie the perception and processing of sensory information. Temperature is a ubiquitous environmental variable that
