C elegans mug

At just 1mm in length, this funny little nematode worm, C. elegans, is scarcely visible to the naked eye. C. elegans is a popular model organism in biology, with lots of advantages for its use in the laboratory. It’s tiny, cheap to buy, and has a generation time of just three days. C. elegans has taught scientists about how embryos develop, the nervous system and even the phenomenon of ageing.

Pink coloured mug featuring an illustration of C. elegans and some facts about it.
