AbstractDetecting chemical signals is important for identifying food sources and avoiding harmful agents. Like many animals, C. elegans use olfaction to chemotax towards their main food source, bacteria. However, little is known about the bacterial compounds governing C. elegans attraction to bacteria and the physiological importance of these compounds to bacteria.

When I joined the longevity field, there had already been a shift from simply observing animals as they age to instead identifying regulators that could greatly alter lifespan, thanks to pioneering invertebrate genetic studies in the 1990s and early 2000s that discovered most well-conserved longevity pathways, particularly caloric restriction and the insulin/IGF-1 and TOR pathway signaling pathways [1,2].
