David Weinkove is an associate professor at Durham University, UK, studying host-microbe interactions in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans. David has been focusing on the way microbes affect the physiology of their hosts, including the process of aging. In this interview, he discusses the questions shaping his research, how they evolved over the years, and his guiding principles for leading a lab.

Dominique Bergmann completed her PhD at the University of Colorado, Boulder, USA, studying left-right asymmetry in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Her interest in cell geometry and organisation led her into the field of plant development, and she carried out postdoctoral research at the Carnegie Institution before establishing her own lab at Stanford University, USA. Dominique is now a Professor of Biology at Stanford and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator. She has been an Editor at Development since 2023. We caught up with Dominique over Zoom to find out more about her research in the field of stomatal development, her role as an Editor, and how her passion for comparative biology has influenced her career.
