Regulation of ageing by electrical synapses in the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans
… of loss-of-function mutants of most C. elegans innexins and discovered that innexins have a significant impact on lifespan, some leading to an extension of lifespan while others accelerate the ageing process and shorten lifespan. Specifically, null mutations in unc-9, the most widely expressed …

The Neural Circuit for Behavioral Responses to Pheromone and Social Behavior in Caenorhabditis Elegans
… suggesting functional redundancy between innexins. In addition, I found that an allele of glb-5 present in the wild strain CB4856 suppresses aggregation, probably by modulating sensitivity to oxygen in oxygen-sensing neurons that promote aggregation. My thesis work should help expand our …
