Genomic strategies reveal a transcriptional cascade that controls synaptic specificity in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>

Proper function of the brain requires that neurons adopt different morphologies and connections. In the nematode <i>C. elegans</i>, VA and VB motor neurons arise from a common precursor cell but adopt different morphologies and accept input from separate sets of command interneurons. In...
