Huge thanks to @biopatrika.bsky.social for featuring our work through #researcherspotlight 😊

We talked about the “why” behind the science, the lab’s aha moments, and what lies ahead. 👩🏻‍🔬

How a Single Neuron Controls Social Swarming in Worms - BioPatrika Researcher Spotlight - how serotonin and PDF-1 signaling balance drives swarm-like social behavior in C. elegans, revealing how single-neuron modulation can reshape collective behavior.

#researcherspotlight Dr. Navneet Shahi @navneetshahi.bsky.social from Prof, Kavita Babu lab @kavita-babu.bsky.social at IISc Bangalore talks about her work on "How a Single Neuron Controls Social Swarming in Worms" #CNSIISc biopatrika.com/academia/res... via @biopatrika.bsky.social
