Embark on an exciting journey as we seamlessly blend genetics, neurobiology, and inquiry into a chemotaxis lab using C. elegans—a microscopic nematode with a rich scientific legacy. Discover the world of classical conditioned learning with this 'Pavlov’s Worms' experiment, comparing normal and mutant worm behavior. Dive into a chemotaxis assay exploring the worm's ability to learn, and unravel the connection of worm genetics to human health.

Workshop Highlights:

• Life Cycle Observation: Explore the life cycle and different stages of development of C. elegans, gaining insights into subculturing techniques that make this nematode an ideal model organism for students.

• Chemotaxis Assay: Witness firsthand how C. elegans can learn to associate salt with their food through a captivating chemotaxis experiment, bringing neurobiology to life in your lab.

• Genetic Insights: Explore genetics by studying a mutant with changes in the daf-18 gene, which affects neurons involved in learning.
