Field notes
CionaBrain models a larval sensorimotor loop with leaky integrate-and-fire dynamics, exposing controls for light, gravity, and side-specific touch. Its interface includes spike rasters, laterality and motor readouts, neuron ablation, sensory-path tracing, matched-trial comparison, and JSON or CSV export. The page distinguishes source-derived weights from heuristic or experimental inhibition, and identifies the connectome as coming from Ryan et al., 2016.
