The Complete Gene Expression Map of the C. elegans Nervous System

The C. elegans Neuronal Gene Expression Map & Network (CeNGEN) is working to establish a comprehensive gene expression atlas of an entire nervous system at single-neuron resolution

Description

Introduction

Differential gene expression defines individual neuron types and determines how each contributes to circuit physiology and responds to injury and disease. The C. elegans Neuronal Gene Expression Map & Network (CeNGEN) is working to establish a comprehensive gene expression atlas of an entire nervous system at single-neuron resolution.
