STORYLINE:
MetaWorm, a simulation model of a roundworm, was unveiled at the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI) Conference 2022 on Tuesday.
When stimulated by food signals, MetaWorm wriggles its body forward like a living worm.
It mimics the 96 muscles and 302 neurons that compose the one-millimeter-long soft body of Caenorhabditis elegans, a type of roundworm.
Developed by BAAI, MetaWorm can smell and move under the high-precision simulations of 106 neurons which are relevant to the dynamic mechanism.
