This study shows FHOD-1 and profilin cooperate to stabilize sarcomere Z-lines in C. elegans by promoting actin assembly and preventing muscle deformation during contraction.

The paper studies how C. elegans chemosensory neurons encode olfactory information through ensemble activity and natural stimuli.

This paper introduces a Pluronic gel-based burrowing assay to assess neuromuscular health in C. elegans by measuring their ability to navigate a gel environment.
