Abstract
Visualizing apoptosis in developing embryos or the germline of Caenorhabditis elegans is remarkably easy because of the transparency of the organism. The invariant pattern of cell division and programmed cell death during development makes it possible to quantify small but reproducible changes in apoptosis, which are easy to detect by light microscopy because of the refractile properties of dying cells. Although apoptotic death is easy to visualize and quantify in the germline of adult hermaphrodites, the pattern of cell death is variable, especially when triggered by stress. The most convenient method for visualization of apoptosis in vivo is light microscopy, which requires immobilizing live embryos or adult animals on slides. This protocol describes the basic methods for visualizing and analyzing apoptosis in living animals.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
