"You need something to receive signals, too." The team chose to study glia, dendrites, and cilia in the nematode C. elegans, a model organism cherished by basic researchers for its straightforward ...

C. elegans CLHM-1 is expressed in the IL2, CEM, HOB and RnB sensory neurons and localizes to the cilia from which EVs are released (Fig. 1). We discovered that animals expressing functional GFP-tagged ...

"We turned to C. elegans to more efficiently elucidate the ... hair-like extensions possessed by many cells termed primary ...

Our experimental organism is C. elegans, but we also work with mammalian primary neurons and cultured cells. We greatly value collaborations and open communication, and seek out collaborative ...
