Editor’s summary
Commenting on a study showing that genetic variation in wild strains of C. elegans modifies polyglutamine disease, Matt Kaeberlein explains why this nematode worm has proved a useful model for studying age-associated failures of protein homeostasis, and why the new research holds therapeutic promise.
