Automated Quantitative Phenotyping using C. elegans
C. elegans has phenotypes that can be directly related to human disease genes, with homologs identified for up to 80% of human disease genes.
Furthermore, the cellular and molecular details of the phenotypes of many human diseases and the mutant defects in C. elegans are highly related, making it a powerful experimental model organism for investigating human diseases and allowing researchers to explore and discover new phenotypes that are difficult and expensive to assess using traditional models and methods.
