Abstract

In article number 1905852, Hang Lu and co-workers develop a microfluidic platform that can deliver spatially and temporally controlled multi-modal stimuli to C. elegans to study multisensory integration in the brain. The cover depicts the nematode being stimulated by mechanical and chemical cues in the device; the nervous system integrates these stimuli to generate behavioral outputs—forward, backward, and pause.
