This Review discusses the potential usefulness of the worm Caenorhabditis elegans as a
model organism for chemists interested in studying living systems. C. elegans, a 1 mm long …

A thorough understanding of nerve regeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans requires
performing femtosecond laser nanoaxotomy while minimally affecting the worm. We present …

Next generation drug screening could benefit greatly from in vivo studies, using small animal
models such as Caenorhabditis elegans for hit identification and lead optimization. Current …

The rheology of aqueous solutions of Pluronic F127 is studied as a function of concentration,
temperature, and shear rate. At sufficiently low temperatures, the solutions behave like …

Microfluidics has emerged as a set of powerful tools that have greatly advanced some areas
of biological research, including research using C. elegans. The use of microfluidics has …

Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) nematodes are a powerful model organism for diverse
biological and biomedical studies, benefiting from their genetic similarities to humans, small …

Long-term studies of Caenorhabditis elegans larval development traditionally require
tedious manual observations because larvae must move to develop, and existing …

Time-resolved visualization and analysis of slow dynamic processes in living cells has
revolutionized many aspects of in vitro cellular studies. However, existing technology …

The nematode C. elegans (worm) is a small invertebrate animal widely used in studies
related to fundamental biological processes, disease modelling, and drug discovery. Due to …
