Master thesis: Wound healing during aging in C. elegans
Wound healing might decline with aging and is impaired in diabetic patients. We aim to establish C. elegans as an in-vivo wound healing model.
Keywords: wound, healing, aging, C. elegans, genetics, microscopy, CRISPR, transgenesis
We are looking for a master student with molecular biology or genetics background. Candidate must be in the ETH Masters program. No experience with C. elegans required. Experience in microscopy welcomed. The candidate will learn molecular techniques including CRISPR.

Assessing wound healing capacity of aging C. elegans. Measure the effects of aging and identify molecular mechanisms to improve wound healing during aging. The candidate will optimize and further develop currently used wound assessment for C. elegans. Please, see
