Caenorhabditis elegans has long been established as a model organism for investigating the molecular determinants of organogenesis and cell fate specification. Vulval development exemplifies a highly ...

Researchers have developed a new imaging technique to observe active gene expression in real time. They found that four molecules work together to control the timing of each stage of the C. elegans ...

The long-term objective of my research is to contribute to our understanding of how cell fates are specified during development. The free-living soil nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, is an excellent ...

WOODS HOLE, Mass. – The nematode worm, C. elegans, is one of the most widely used animal models in biological research. In 1998, it became the first animal genome to be fully sequenced and, since then ...
