I’m happy to share that our new paper has been published. Our findings show that there are autonomous and nonautonomous mechanisms to independently pattern sexual dimorphism of the nervous system in C. elegans. Check it out! https://t.co/xQqTmO3uhZ

Wonder how to precisely control microtubule assembly? Our collaborative work demonstrates a method called "RIVET" that allows you rapidly and reversibly control microtubule dynamics in worms. Check it out! https://t.co/ySFgeuI7ka

Have you ever wondered how C. elegans males find and evaluate potential mates? Wonder no longer!

The selection of optimal mates is central to animal fitness and evolution. Here, Luo et al. find that diverse sensory signals inform C. elegans males about the sex, stage, feeding status, and mating...

Glad to get involved in this project! It will be a very useful toolkit to study sensory functions in C. elegans! https://t.co/uYzbJKeqn6

Our signal propagation atlas of C. elegans is now out in @Nature! We measure the network’s response to optogenetic stimulation of each neuron in the head, one at a time-- over 23,000 neuron pairs. Congrats to @francescorandi @aksharma_118 & @DvaliSophie. https://t.co/DshzdEXz4P

I'm happy to share our latest work published in Current Biology. We demonstrate that C. elegans males sense cuticular cues and body stiffness to recognize mates. A wonderful journey in collaborations with @wormraiser @Pujol_lab https://t.co/G7SOyVW29Y
