On microbes, aging and the worm: an interview with David Weinkove

Weinkove, David

Abstract

David Weinkove is an associate professor at Durham University, UK, studying host–microbe interactions in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans. David has been focusing on the way microbes affect the physiology of their hosts, including the process of aging. In this interview, he discusses the questions shaping his research, how they evolved over the years, and his guiding principles for leading a lab.
