This is so helpful, thank you!

C. elegans! We decided to transfer them to a colleague’s -80 and hope they revive. Another C. elegans researcher said as long as they don’t thaw they should be okay but we’re still really concerned.

This is our first time with worms in this situation so we’re really in the dark. I appreciate any advice for how to handle worm frozen stocks when temperatures shift this much!

Woohoo! That’s my PI (and that will be some of my data presented)! 😆

Now i need to hurry up and publish my imaging results soon, too 🤣

Instant repost from me! I’ll log in and support it through the webpage when I get off work, too!

Final product

Thank you, I’ll read that article today!

This helped a lot, thank you! I usually sync at the end of the work day and transfer to plate the following morning (~18 hours) in M9 for convenience reasons but I almost deviated from that this morning to do a 24 hour M9 incubation post-sync. Glad I avoided that mistake! 😆
