Earlier studies of the PI and his collaborators have exploited a simple invertebrate model system (the leech) to investigate sensorimotor integration (Arisi et al., 2001; Zoccolan & Torre, 2002; Zoccolan et al., 2002; Garcia-Perez et al, 2004) and decision making (Garcia-Perez et al, 2005), while applying and developing computer vision approaches and signal processing tools for the quantitive analysis of motor behavior (Zoccolan et al, 2001; Mazzoni et al, 2005).
