Paper alert: Van Eijnatten and colleagues find that C. elegans gene expression is confounded by what they call 'developmental age' (not chronological age). This complicates the interpretation of eQTL experiments, for which they provide a solution!

With a complex developmental program, eQTL mapping can be challenging, as changes in gene expression complicate interpretation. Check out this new paper in G3 by Bram van Eijnatten, Basten Snoek and collaborators from Wageningen University & Research, and see how we can improve detection of eQTLs!
