Progressive recruitment of distal MEC-4 channels determines touch response strength in C. elegans

Touch deforms, or strains, the skin beyond the immediate point of contact. The spatiotemporal nature of the touch-induced strain fields depend on the mechanical properties of the skin and the tissues below.
