Article Synopsis
  • Animal foraging is a critical behavior seen in both social and solitary species, yet its molecular pathways remain unclear.
  • Researchers identified autism-related genes in *C. elegans* that influence social feeding behavior, particularly through chemosensory neurons.
  • Specific interaction mechanisms involve the genes NRX-1 and NLG-1 impacting synaptic function, where disruptions lead to a shift from social to solitary feeding behaviors.

High-resolution imaging has revolutionized the study of single cells in their spatial context. However, summarizing the great diversity of complex cell shapes found in tissues and inferring associations with other single-cell data remains a challenge. Here, we present CAJAL, a general computational framework for the analysis and integration of single-cell morphological data.
