Research from the Flavell lab has been featured in MIT News this week. Cracking the code that relates brain and behavior in a simple animal MIT researchers model and create an atlas for how [...]

How do neurons across the brain control behavior? We built probabilistic model w/ C.elegans neurons—yielding an atlas of how its well-defined neurons encode behavior. Check it out @CellCellPress [...]

We are pleased to bring you the @CellCellPress paper of #FacesOfCell Eric Bueno, “Dissecting the functional organization of the C. elegans serotonergic system at whole-brain scale” [...]

The Flavell lab has had to say a number of farewells this spring, as various lab members have headed off for the next stages of their careers. Here are a couple of group photos from one of the [...]

After a long year plus of virtual meetings and celebrations, the Flavell group was finally able to gather at the historic Auburndale Boathouse on the Charles River in Newton. They gathered for [...]

It will be a while before the lab can gather together in person, and not with this arrangement of people, but in September of 2019, the lab was able to get together in one place. Looking good, [...]

This spring, the lab took an evening out to play some candlepin bowling.

Congrats to first author Jeff Rhoades and to all other lab members involved! doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2018.11.023
