TLDR
The Stomatogastric ganglion of Panulirus interruptus contains about 30 neurons, and controls the movements of the lobster's stomach, and a group of six neurons which drive the stomach's lateral teeth are described.Abstract:
The Stomatogastric ganglion ofPanulirus interruptus contains about 30 neurons, and controls the movements of the lobster's stomach When experimentally isolated, the ganglion continues to generate complex rhythmic patterns of activity in its motor neurons which are similar to those seen in intact animalsread more

TL;DR: The anatomical connectome provides a minimal structure and the neuromodulatory environment constructs and specifies the functional circuits that give rise to behavior.

Understanding circuit dynamics using the stomatogastric nervous system of lobsters and crabs.
Eve Marder,Dirk Bucher +1 more
TL;DR: It is known that (a) neuromodulatory substances reconfigure circuit dynamics by altering synaptic strength and voltage-dependent conductances and (b) individual neurons can switch among different functional circuits.

The stomatogastric nervous system: structure and function of a small neural network.
TL;DR: The stomatogastric system and experimental procedure were used as a model for computer network modeling and neuron reconstruction studies to study the mechanisms of rhythm generation in the pyloric system.

Neuronal control of leech behavior.
TL;DR: Describing of six behaviors of leech behavior including their origins within neuronal circuits, their modification by feedback loops and neuromodulators, and interactions between circuits underlying with these behaviors are provided.

Rapid killing of single neurons by irradiation of intracellularly injected dye.
TL;DR: In this article, a simple technique for rapidly killing all or part of single neurons consists of filling the cell with Lucifer Yellow CH and irradiating it with intense blue light, such treatment kills the irradiated part of the cell within a few minutes.

A quantitative description of membrane current and its application to conduction and excitation in nerve
A. L. Hodgkin,A. F. Huxley +1 more
TL;DR: This article concludes a series of papers concerned with the flow of electric current through the surface membrane of a giant nerve fibre by putting them into mathematical form and showing that they will account for conduction and excitation in quantitative terms.

The dual effect of membrane potential on sodium conductance in the giant axon of Loligo
A. L. Hodgkin,A. F. Huxley +1 more
TL;DR: This paper contains a further account of the electrical properties of the giant axon of Loligo and deals with the 'inactivation' process which gradually reduces sodium permeability after it has undergone the initial rise associated with depolarization.

The Central Nervous Control of Flight in a Locust
TL;DR: It is suggested that the basic co-ordination of flight is an inherent function of the central nervous system but that peripheral feedback loops influence the frequency of Operation and details of pattern.
