In the age of connectomics, it is increasingly important to understand how the nodes and edges of a brain's anatomical network, or "connectome," gives rise to neural signaling and neural function. I will present the first comprehensive brain-wide cell-resolved causal measurements of how neurons signal to one another in response to stimulation in the nematode C. elegans. I will compare this signal propagation atlas to the worm's known connectome to address fundamental questions of structure and function in the brain.
