Imagine a world without Flybase... Let's all help out if we can!

Last week to submit abstracts! Looking forward to #EDRC2025 and amazing #Drosophila research in Alicante! @fly-eds.bsky.social @fly-jedi.bsky.social

Remember that early bird registration closes on the 15th of May and abstract deadline is the 28th of May. Book early for the best prices and a chance to present your work at #EDRC2025

Thanks @dev-journal.bsky.social for featuring our paper - led by Rodrigo Garcia and Linus Schumacher in Edinburgh. So much exciting #germcell biology at the #GRC meeting!

Calling all fly researchers! Submit your abstracts before 28 May! Looking forward to seeing all the great #drosophila research going on at #EDRC2025 in Spain @edrc2025.bsky.social @fly-jedi.bsky.social @fly-eds.bsky.social

Been looking forward to reading this since Amelie presented her poster at the #CSHL #germcells meeting!

New paper from the lab! We study how gene expression is controlled post-transcriptionally to determine stem cell fate. plos.io/3Dw1W07 a 🧵:

A role for translational control in stem & differentiating cells. @amoyellab.bsky.social &co show that signals from the #StemCell niche induce changes in translational rates (via eIF3d1 phosphorylation) to control stem cell fate in #Drosophila testis 🧪 @plosbiology.org plos.io/3Dw1W07

Love it!

Want to establish your lab in London to study important questions in cell and/or developmental biology? Our department @ucl-cdb.bsky.social is looking to sponsor independent research Fellows. Details here: bit.ly/4jzae7u and informal enquiries welcome. Come join us!

This is a big problem! @royalsociety.org many of us would be happy to support efforts to change this and make the UK an attractive place for scientists to come.

How does regulation of stem cell proliferation interplay with multistate dynamics? I'm chuffed to have my first PhD student Rodrigo García-Tejera's second article (with me) published in @dev-journal.bsky.social, great collaboration with @amoyellab.bsky.social and Ramon Grima.

There's still time to apply! Come join our lab and study how somatic metabolism influences germ cell development.

We're hiring a postdoc! Come join us and work on understanding how somatic cells support the germline. This project aims to understand metabolic compartmentalisation between somatic and germ cells and how it contributes to fertility. Apply here www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...

We're hiring a postdoc! Please forward to people you know who are looking for positions. Interested in studying how metabolism is wired to support fertility? 🔬🪰 Come join us! Ad to go live next week, but informal enquiries encouraged.

New lab preprint! Very excited to share this work, led by Ruoxu Wang. We study how stem cell fate is controlled post-transcriptionally and find a new regulator of translation initiation: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
