Great work everyone!
Our paper showing C. elegans can be used to study biofilms in vivo. Great collaboration with @EzcurraMarina and her team, and @perfectusbiomed in a project supported by @ukbiofilms Thanks to all at @MagnitudeBio - great use of the WormGazer technology! doi.org/10.3389/fcimb.2024.1…

C. elegans does it again!
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, making it a useful model for investigating how tissues develop and mature in multicellular organisms. Read how the 2024 medicine laureates’ investigations into C. elegans revealed an entirely new dimension to gene regulation: bit.ly/4dlPE6f #NobelPrize
