Knowing one's own behavioral state has long been theorized as critical for contextualizing dynamic sensory cues and identifying appropriate future behaviors. Ascending neurons (ANs) in the motor system that project to brain are well positioned provide such signals. However, what ANs encode where they convey these signals remains largely unknown. Here, through large-scale functional imaging behaving animals morphological quantification, we report encoding targeting of hundreds genetically...
Abstract Knowledge of one’s own behavioral state—whether one is walking, grooming, or resting—is critical for contextualizing sensory cues including interpreting visual motion and tracking odor sources. Additionally, awareness posture important to avoid initiating destabilizing physically impossible actions. Ascending neurons (ANs), interneurons in the vertebrate spinal cord insect ventral nerve (VNC) that project brain, may provide such high-fidelity state signals. However, little known...
