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.

#NobelPrize
This year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine goes to two C. elegans researchers, Gary Ruvkun and Victor Ambros, for their discovery of microRNAs leading to an understanding of a previously unknown fundamental biological process where microRNAs help regulate gene expression.
WormAtlas is now hosting the talks from the Electron Microscopy Workshop featured at the 2023 International C. elegans Conference. These informative videos are available on our Anatomical Methods page via YouTube. https://t.co/fuoMOEtqj3 #worm23#celegans
