Caenorhabditis elegans lives in a complex habitat in which they routinely experience large
fluctuations in temperature, and encounter physical obstacles that vary in size and …

Learning is an essential biological process for survival since it facilitates behavioural
plasticity in response to environmental changes. This process is mediated by a wide variety …

Neurons modify their transcriptomes in response to an animal's experience. How specific
experiences are transduced to modulate gene expression and precisely tune neuronal …

In neurons, defects in autophagosome clearance have been associated with
neurodegenerative disease. Yet, the mechanisms that coordinate trafficking and clearance …

Neural plasticity, the ability of neurons to change their properties in response to
experiences, underpins the nervous system's capacity to form memories and actuate …

Soil-transmitted parasitic nematodes infect over one billion people and cause devastating
morbidity worldwide. Many of these parasites have infective larvae that locate hosts using …

C. elegans is a useful genetic model system for investigating mechanisms involved in
sensory behavior which are potentially relevant to human diseases. While utilities of …
