Olfactory imprinting enhances associative learning and memory in C. elegans.

Learning and memory are fundamental processes for an organism's normal physiological function. Learning can occur at any stage of the organism's physiological development. Imprinted memories formed during the early developmental stage, unlike learning and memory, can last a lifetime.

Alginate Gel Immobilization of for Optical Calcium Imaging of Neurons.

A fascinating question in neuroscience is how sensory stimuli evoke calcium dynamics in neurons. is one of the most suitable models for optically recording high-throughput calcium spikes at single-cell resolution. However, calcium imaging in is challenging due to the difficulties associated with immobilizing the organism.
