Learning the Biochemical Basis of Axonal Guidance: Using <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> as a Model

Aim: Experimental models are a powerful aid in visualizing molecular phenomena. This work reports how the worm <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> (<i>C. elegans</i>) can be effectively explored for students to learn how molecular cues dramatically condition axonal guidance and def...
