Jonathan Hodgkin was one of the earliest researchers to explore the genetics of development in the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans. He first unpicked the genetic and maturational events that determine the sex of individual worms before extending his interest to other developmental pathways, behaviour and immunity.
The Biologist 66 (6) p14-17. Jonathan Hodgkin FRS is emeritus professor of genetics at the University of Oxford and a former president of the Genetics Society. In the 1970s he was a student of Sydney Brenner, the first researcher to suggest the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans could be used to study fundamental biological processes.
