Constructing a Low-budget Laser Axotomy System to Study Axon Regeneration in C. elegans

Laser axotomy followed by time-lapse microscopy is a sensitive assay for axon regeneration phenotypes in C. elegans(1). The main difficulty of this assay is the perceived cost ($25-100K) and technical expertise required for implementing a laser ablation system(2,3). However, solid-state pulse lasers...
