The OpenWorm 3D Browser enables ready access to a cell-by-cell 3D representation of the nematode C. elegans. Explore all the 956 cells of the hermaphrodite C. elegans and learn about the anatomy of this worm so useful for science.
Buying this app is a way to directly support the OpenWorm project [1]. OpenWorm is an open source project dedicated to creating the world’s first virtual organism in a computer, starting with a C.elegans nematode.
The C. elegans 3D model is provided courtesy of Dr. Christian Grove and Dr. Paul Sternberg at the VirtualWorm[2] project (WormBase, CalTech).
