Caenorhabditis elegans Show Preference for Stimulants and Potential as a Model Organism for Medications Screening
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is a popular invertebrate model organism to study neurobiological disease states. This is due in part to the intricate mapping of all neurons and synapses of the entire animal, the wide availability of mutant strains, and the genetic and molecular too...
