Conserved and diverged patterns of senescence in <i>Pristionchus</i> nematodes

2026-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Healthspan, the period of life where organisms are without frailty and/or disease, is a major focus of biogerontological research. To understand late-life decline and increased mortality risk, short-lived organisms such as nematode worms are commonly used. Pristionchus nematodes are established models for evolutionary developmental genetics research and show promise as systems for comparative and experimental stu...
