Summary

Traduction automatique

This study outlines quantitative measurements of synaptic size and localization, muscle morphology, and mitochondrial shape in C. elegans using freely available image processing tools. This approach allows future studies in C. elegans to quantitatively compare the extent of tissue and organelle structural changes as a result of genetic mutations.
