The guests at the WorMotel check in with a plop. Each guest has a private room, cozy and controlled temperatures, and enough food to last a lifetime. There’s just one catch: They can never leave. Featuring a silicone plate with an array of 240 wells that host tiny nematodes, the WorMotel is the creation of researchers in the Fang-Yen Lab at the University of Pennsylvania. Researchers to study thousands of the worms at a time in the hopes of revealing which of their 20,000 genes control aging.
