DESCRIPTION:Prof. Aravinthan Samuel\, Harvard University\nSmall animals l
 ike nematodes and fruit flies permit whole-brain approaches to measuring t
 he neural dynamics and mapping the circuits that give rise to behavior.  
 Whole-brain activity is mutually contingent on behaviour itself\, especial
 ly for natural behaviours which require dynamic interaction between the an
 imal\, its environment and other animals. Many of the signalling and feedb
 ack pathways that animals use to guide behaviour only occur in freely movi
 ng animals. Recent technological advances have enabled whole-brain recordi
 ng during behavior and whole-brain connectomics in Caenorhabditis elegans.
  I will discuss new experimental opportunities and challenges in this emer
 ging field of systems neuroscience.
