In a new #GENETICS #WormBook chapter, @meera_sundaram and Pujol lab dive deep into what makes #Celegans an excellent model to study apical extracellular matrix biology and how its structure affects the organism's functions in myriad ways. Read more: bit.ly/3WdGRNl

In the latest #GENETICS issue, @meera_sundaram and colleagues visualized hedgehog-related proteins in #Celegans cuticle and precuticle extracellular matrices suggesting their function in coating, shaping, and protecting external epithelia. Read more: bit.ly/3Wp5uGI

BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

This year’s medicine laureates Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun studied a relatively unassuming 1 mm long roundworm, C. elegans. Despite its small size, C. elegans possesses many specialised cell types such as nerve and muscle cells also found in larger, more complex animals,
