Abstract excerpt

Collective animal behaviors arise from a complex interplay between internal physiological states and external environmental cues. In Caenorhabditis elegans, favorable conditions promote dispersal, while stressors like food scarcity trigger aggregation. Here, we describe a distinct self-organized swarming behavior, where C. elegans move and feed in groups driven by uncontrolled local increases in population...
