The Miller lab studies the mechanism of synaptic specificity in the C. elegans motor neuron circuit. The UNC-4 homeodomain protein specifies synaptic inputs to one class of motor neurons in the ventral nerve cord. A major focus of the lab is to identify the genes that unc-4 regulates and how they control synaptic choice.
