Caenorhabditis elegans is a species of soil-dwelling nematode (roundworm) used as a model organism in molecular genetics and developmental biology. It is predominantly hermaphroditic (can self ...

The totality of bacteria, viruses and fungi that exist in and on a multicellular organism forms its natural microbiome. The ...

An international team led by EPFL has discovered a powerful anti-aging pathway in roundworms, revealing how boosting the cell ...

Study finds that the pace of evolution in organisms differs depending on the type of cells involved. A new study finds that ...

Fred Hutch researchers have created a gene-expression map of glial cells of the tiny worm, C. elegans, adding the missing ...

I decided that I, too, needed to attend the Longwood Area Worm Meeting. Thus began a trip into the world of C. elegans worms and the people who love them. In 25 years as a writer in Boston, I’ve ...

Two species of worms have retained remarkably similar patterns in the way they switch their genes on and off despite having split from a common ancestor 20 million years ago, a new study finds.

READ: Manila Water surpasses 7.8M customers served as of April 2025 In the case of Maynilad, customers with a monthly consumption of 10 cu. m. or less will see a meager increase of P0.01.

Here, we independently validate the transgenerational inheritance of PA14 avoidance in C. elegans. Using standardized choice assays, we show that worms trained on PA14 develop significant avoidance ...

MANILA, Philippines — Fuel prices are projected to increase next week, local industry sources said on Friday, citing the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the US and Iran nuclear ...

The relatively simple genome, short life cycle, and easy observation of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) make it an excellent model organism for aging research. Age-stage prediction of C. elegans ...
