A metabolomic approach to assessing life-history traits in Caenorhabditis elegans

The proximate causes of ageing and the biological processes that determine lifespan are still unclear. However, many studies using model organisms have led to the identification of genes associated with longevity. While there is a clear link between changes in metabolism and changes in longevity, th...
