PhD student studying mechanical forces involved in the development of the nervous system, using Ciona Intestinalis as a model.

I am excited to share that one part of my PhD project is out as a preprint! 🤩

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 ⤵️

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 ⤵️
