Come along JEDIs! The meeting will be great if you do! 3 days to the deadline ⏱️⏱️⏱️⏱️⏱️

Just in case you were wondering…

Meet Anupama Hemalatha, FMI’s newest group leader! Her research uses live imaging to explore how metabolic pathways regulate cell behavior. She shares her passion for science, what drew her to FMI, and why mentorship matters 👇 www.fmi.ch/news-events/...

Open positions in our lab. Just sayin…

📢Please share: We're now accepting applications for our #PhD and #MDPhD programs! 🧬Join us in Basel, Europe's #LifeScience hub, and unleash your potential in a vibrant, international and supportive environment. 📅Apply by May 1 at www.fmi.ch/education-ca...

Where are Greek and Italian fly people? How about Spain!? 10 days left, fellow Southeuropeans :-)

Science is for everyone! 🧪✨ For the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we asked some of our incredible female researchers what they love about science and why representation matters. #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM

###******* 2025 JEDI meeting slots filling in (teasing your FOMO)

The #insulin system of the fruitfly #Drosophila is very similar to that of humans. @jan-ache.bsky.social now reports new findings on the mechanisms controlling insulin release in live flies @elife.bsky.social. ➡️ www.uni-wuerzburg.de/en/news-and-...

As we're entering the last month for registering the FlyJEDI meeting 2025 shorturl.at/8VO7A I am happy to share with you that the event is now sponsored by @fly-eds.bsky.social @ijmonod.bsky.social Many thanks for supporting the community's reboot. Join us to build a strong research community!

We are hiring a new (Senior) Lab Research scientist to work in our team together with @antoniotorm.bsky.social to understand how virus alter neural circuit function to manipulate behavior. More details and how to apply: crick.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job...

Congrats to all. Ivy - @ivychanchiwai.bsky.social What an achievement! Rockstar!

Excited to share our new preprint: How does the fly mushroom body support odour categorisation and discrimination? 🧠✨ Dive into Ivy Chan's @ivychanchiwai.bsky.social findings on how neural circuits enable complex olfactory processing in flies. Check it out here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
