DESCRIPTION:From neural nets to movement in Hydra\n\nAdrienne L. Fairhall (
 University of Washington)\n	Tuesday November 28\, 12-1pm\n	Zoom Link: https:
 //mcgill.zoom.us/j/86855481591\n	In Person: 550 Sherbrooke\, Room 189\n	\n	Ab
 stract: The small fresh-water cnidarian Hydra is a fascinating model organ
 ism for neuroscience. It is transparent\; new genetic lines allow one to i
 mage activity in both neurons and muscle cells\; it exhibits a quite rich 
 suite of behaviors\; and it continually rebuilds itself. Hydra’s fairly si
 mple physical structure as a two-layered fluid-filled hydrostat and the ac
 cessibility of information about neural and muscle activity open the possi
 bility of a complete model of neural control of behavior. We have develope
 d a biophysical and biomechanical model of Hydra's muscles and body that a
 llows us to transform measured neural activity into behavior\, and a neura
 l model that proposes a mechanism driving its contractile oscillations.\n
