The Parallel Worm Tracker: a platform for measuring average speed and drug-induced paralysis in nematodes.
PLoS One. 2008; (5): e2208
Caenorhabditis elegans locomotion is a simple behavior that has been widely used to dissect genetic components of behavior, synaptic transmission, and muscle function. Many of the paradigms that have been created to study C. elegans locomotion rely on qualitative experimenter observation. Here we report the implementation of an automated tracking system developed to quantify the locomotion of multiple individual worms in parallel.
