Symmetry group factorization reveals the structure-function relation in the neural connectome of Caenorhabditis elegans

The 302-neuron connectome of the nematode C. elegans has been completely mapped, yet the design principles that explain how the connectome structure determines its function are unknown. Here, the authors show that physical principles of symmetry and mathematical tools of symmetry groups can be used...
