Rate My Professor Michelle Mondoux

Mondoux teaches Biological Principles and Cell Biology. She has obtained significant funding, including a $322,200 grant from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development to examine sugar consumption's impact on reproductive cells in C. elegans. Key publications include "O-GlcNAc cycling and insulin signaling are required for the glucose stress response in Caenorhabditis elegans" (Genetics, 2011), "Dynamic O-GlcNAc cycling at promoters of C. elegans genes regulating longevity, stress, and immunity" (PNAS, 2010), "High-glucose diets have sex-specific effects on aging in C. elegans" (2015), "Timing of High-glucose Diet in the C. elegans Lifecycle Impacts Fertility Phenotypes" (2022), and "Metabolic shift from glycogen to trehalose promotes lifespan and healthspan in Caenorhabditis elegans" (2018). Her research involves undergraduates, resulting in conference presentations, and contributes insights into nutrient stress relevant to human conditions like type 2 diabetes.
