- C. elegans exhibits behavior plasticity that appears to correspond to non-associative and associative learning, and short-term and long-term memory. Recent finding revealed that evolutionally conserved molecules such as insulin, monoamines, and neuropeptides are required for the plasticity.
- They propose the concept of human brain operation from the C. elegans studies.
