Our preprint "The tardigrade as an emerging model organism for systems neuroscience" is up.

We have been making the case for some time that tardigrades, aka water bears, would be an amazing new model organism for certain big systems neuroscience questions. We put this into a detailed paper outlining the scientific motivations and to-do items, along with a review of tardigrade biology. Download and enjoy with a nice glass of algae, just like the tardigrade!

Congrats to first author, postdoc Ana Lyons!
