Worms for Christmas

4 December 2013

Hertford postgraduate, Hayley Lees, stars in today’s film from the Royal Institution’s on-line Advent Calendar. The calendar, based on the Christmas Lectures to be delivered by Hertford Fellow in Biochemistry, Dr Alison Woollard, features the nematode worm, C. Elegans. You can have fun hunting for it – the film, not the worm – with a microscope at http://www.rigb.org/advent/04 but it is also be available on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XErJiPKZvKQ.
