Abstract
Sensory-motor reflex circuits are the basic units from which animal nervous systems are constructed, yet little is known regarding how connections within these simple networks are established. In papers in Cell Reports and in this issue of Neuron, Zheng et al. (2015a, 2015b) demonstrate that coordinate activities of Hox genes in sensory neurons and interneurons govern connectivity within touch-reflex circuits in C. elegans.
