Cover Photo: <\/b>Green fluorescent protein (GFP) has revolutionized molecular biology by allowing scientists to label individual proteins in a cell or, as in this photo, entire organisms. Here, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans<\/i>, a common model organism in the study of developmental biology and genetics, is labeled with GFP to provide a clear view of its body plan. The photograph was taken in the Fall 2014 semester in Gilmer Hall at Hampden-Sydney. Note the unborn C. elegans <\/i>that can be seen developing inside the adult nematodes. (From Grayland W.
