Abstract: The 1mm long nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is one of the best characterized animals and an important biological model for studies of nervous system function and behavior.

When I asked what they studied, a young biologist named Maria told me she works with an animal called C. elegans.My humanities brain heard “sea elegance.” I imagined a giant creature swimming ...

By comparison, restoration of DAF-2 or AGE-1 in muscle regulated metabolism but did not reverse the dauer stage or lifespan ... essential functions in C. elegans, and the metabolic and ...

Is there a difference in brain structure between men and women? If we were to find such a difference in a single neuron, would it matter? One of the most useful models for studying these questions ...
