# How C. elegans Nose Glia Smell Trouble

How C. elegans Nose Glia Smell Trouble at Rockefeller University, Monday 16 November 2026, 16:00.

- Venue: Rockefeller University, York Avenue 1230, 10065 New York
- With: Shai Shaham

A science lecture in the Monday Lecture Series at Rockefeller University titled "How C. elegans Nose Glia Smell Trouble." It is given by Shai Shaham, Ph.D., Richard E. Salomon Family Professor and head of the Laboratory of Developmental Genetics at The Rockefeller University. He will describe his lab's studies of glial cells in the nematode C. elegans, showing that sense organ glia have sensory capacities of their own and can detect and respond to sensory neuron deficits. He will highlight a novel signaling pathway they dissected and the roles of non-canonical hedgehog-related signaling components in it.
