I am keeping everything crossed that there will be a solution. Community resources like @flybase.bsky.social @bdsc.bsky.social @dgrc.bsky.social @vdrc-flies.bsky.social (and many more!) and the incredible scientists that maintain them are essential and absolutely irreplaceable ❤️

Having done some literature reviews in biomedical research (1 published, 2 in progress), there’s lots of room to improve inclusion of female animals. I will say, however, that things are beginning to shift at conferences, which is a wonderful to see.

We are very pleased to share that our paper on sexual dimorphism in circadian rhythms has been published in @plosbiology.org. This work was led by the very talented Aishwarya Iyer and includes contributions from three undergraduate co-authors. You can read the full study here:

I'm thrilled to see the latest work from the lab published today @currentbiology.bsky.social. This project was carried by PhD student Jinfang Li, who combined the Flywire connectome with functional experiments to examine the principles of taste circuits in the fly brain. (Image by Jacelyn Shu)

To my fellow #Drosophila colleagues & friends... As you know @flybase.bsky.social has been under financial pressure due to #NIH cuts for several years. With the threats Harvard is currently facing, supporting FlyBase is even more essential. If you have the means, make a tax-deductible donation.

A further, and somewhat odd update for folks: - The city emailed me, claiming it is only a 62% reduction in staff, and asked where I got my info from - I told them I got it from the city clerk when she briefed city council, where she said it two times So we'll see what they say

Excellent Op-Ed by Peter Zandstra on improving 🇨🇦 science at a time when 🇺🇸 is throttling their golden goose. Instead of bespoke, targeted & ultimately short term solutions limited to a few people, build a deep, more attractive ecosysyem. The best will thrive. www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/46242ee...

This is a fantastic piece. Really hoping that trends toward greater inclusion of female animals and sex-based analysis I’ve seen at diabetes meetings will persist despite this uncertainty. We will all benefit from adhering to SABV/SGBA+ in research.
