Abstract

The ventral nerve cord (VNC) of Drosophila is an important model system for understanding how nervous systems generate locomotion. In this issue of Neuron, Court et al. define the structures of the adult VNC to provide an anatomical framework for analyzing the functional organization of the VNC.
