The Baugh Lab is interested in phenotypic plasticity and physiological adaptation
to variable environmental conditions. We are using the roundworm C. elegans to understand
how animals adapt to starvation using primarily genetic and genomic approaches. We
are studying how development is governed by nutrient availability, how animals survive
starvation, and the long-term consequences of starvation including adult disease and
transgenerational epigenetic inheritance.
