Encoding of Tactile Stimuli by Mechanoreceptors and Interneurons of the Medicinal Leech
For many animals processing of tactile information is a crucial task in behavioral contexts like exploration, foraging, and stimulus avoidance. The leech, having infrequent access to food, developed an energy efficient reaction to tactile stimuli, avoiding unnecessary muscle movements: The local ben...
