Roll maneuvers are essential for active reorientation of Caenorhabditis elegans in 3D media [Biophysics and Computational Biology]

Locomotion of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a key observable used in investigations ranging from behavior to neuroscience to aging. However, while the natural environment of this model organism is 3D, quantitative investigations of its locomotion have been mostly limited to 2D motion. Here, we present a quantitative analysis of...
