This project investigates how neuropeptide signaling affects learning and memory processes using the simple nervous system of the worm Caenorhabditis elegans. By identifying neuropeptide receptors and their roles, the research aims to create models that enhance our understanding of these cognitive functions.
Humanity has always been intrigued by the nearly mythical properties of the brain.
With its billions of neurons and innumerable connections, the brain is of such complex nature, that trying to understand it may seem a vain project.
Yet, by using the ‘mini-brain’ of the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans, which shares many components with the human brain but counts only 302 neurons, thorough research can penetrate into this complexity.
We here pursue to deliver a much-needed understanding of h…
