The little worm that could (escape light): a single nerve cell helps C. elegans escape harmful UV exposure
It’s hard to imagine, but the tiny, translucent roundworm called C. elegans has approximately 20,470 protein-coding genes—about the same number as humans. This is perhaps one of the many reasons why this common worm was...
Why one worm species beats the heat better than another one
A new study in GENETICS investigates the role of heat shock regulators and chaperones.
A plant biologist whose seminal work led to a vision of a sustainable future
One of the most influential geneticists of our time, Dr. Joanne Chory (1955-2024), recipient of the Thomas Hunt Morgan Medal, transformed modern molecular plant biology and applied her trailblazing discoveries to some of science’s most...
