C. elegans maximum velocity correlates with healthspan and is maintained in worms with an insulin receptor mutation

Ageing is marked by physical decline. Caenorhabditis elegans is a valuable model for identifying genetic regulatory mechanisms of ageing and longevity. Here we report a simple method to assess C. elegans' maximum physical ability based on the worms' maximum movement velocity. We show maxim...
