Make males live more than 400% longer and prevent sexual disfunction late in life?! We're down with it. Our latest preprint: Disruption of the insulin signaling pathway in C. elegans dramatically increases male longevity and enhances reproductive health late in life. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

More new science from the lab! Led by @nathancsharris.bsky.social (now at GA State) and PD Priya Dutta.

We describe how experience tunes the ratios of functional receptors in a single sensory neuron via coordinating transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms to drive response plasticity.
Experience-dependent reconfiguration of receptors at a sensory compartment regulates neuronal plasticity https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.08.13.670147v1

We're kicking off this semester with our first Distinguished Lecture Series event!

We’re thrilled to welcome Douglas Portman, Ph.D. from the University of Rochester for his talk: “Sex vs. Food: Behavioral Plasticity in the Nematode C. elegans”

📅September 12th
🕙10AM
📍Petit Science Center, Room 124

The funds are approved! We're hiring a postdoc to build a CRISPRa toolkit to identify new aging mechanisms in C. elegans.

Email or DM me to find out more. Please share & repost!

I started an Aging Research starter pack. Feels very sparse right now, so (1) let me know who I missed and (2) we need to recruit a few folks who abandoned science twitter some time ago back into the fold.
