This is a study of several aspects of the ways in which rhythmic movement patterns can be altered, and the ways in which functionally related movement patterns are coordinated with one another. The PI will study these problems at the level of individual nerve cells in the simple nervous system of the lobster. The role of different neuropeptide neurotransmitters in the rhythmic patterns of cardiac sac and gastric neurons will be examined. This research will lead to a better understanding of neurons control complicated integrated movements.

这是对改变节奏运动模式的方式的几个方面的研究，以及与彼此协调的功能相关运动模式的方式。 PI将在龙虾简单神经系统中的单个神经细胞水平上研究这些问题。 将检查不同神经肽神经递质在心脏囊和胃神经元的节奏模式中的作用。 这项研究将使人们更好地了解神经元控制复杂的综合运动。
