How neurons sense bacteria in the gut A new study by MIT neuroscientists reveals the specific chemical signals that a key neuron in the nematode C. elegans, called NSM, uses to sense both beneficial and harmful bacteria in the gut. This r

I used to skip science news, but now...wow. Turns out a single neuron in worms can "taste" bacteria in their gut. Specifically, sugars like peptidoglycan. And THAT affects behavior. Amazing how connected it all is.
