Using optogenetics, high-res in vivo imaging & multi-omics, we’ll track how GPCR signals guide foraging & feeding. Understanding how the two nervous systems in C. elegans coordinate foraging and food intake will shed light on core principles of neuromodulatory control.

@monikakscholz.bsky.social lab and Alexander Gottschalk’s team @goetheuni.bsky.social are zooming in on C. elegans. With just 302 neurons, this tiny worm helps us study how two nervous systems — somatic & enteric — coordinate via neuromodulators like dopamine & serotonin. 🪱🔬

GPCRs are tiny molecular switches that let animals respond instantly to danger, hunger, or stress. Just a few messengers (like dopamine or adrenaline) activate diverse pathways that shape behavior and physiology.
