BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

Outreach funding opportunity, sponsored by the Fly Board: Non-profit programs anywhere in the world that introduce middle school, high school, or college students to Drosophila research are eligible to apply! The number of students that this funding would impact and financial need will be considered

Hey #drosophila hive mind. We are looking for a lineage tracing tool that does not depend on the UAS/Gal4 to look for adult stem cells. Does anyone know if such tools exist? Something like G-Trace would be ideal

📢 New Publication! Excited to share my latest research in Open Biology! @royalsocietypublishing.org We developed live Drosophila models to track whole organism and neuronal pexophagy - the selective autophagy of peroxisomes - in vivo. 📄 Full paper: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... 🧵👇

New Video Alert! How do tiny fruit flies ( #Drosophila melanogaster) make life-or-death flight decisions in milliseconds? Our latest video explains the key role of DNp03, a #neuron that helps flies execute rapid turns (saccades). 🧐👇 Watch here: youtu.be/U11baSEQ_uY

🚨PIs of Training Grants and Programs, ESPECIALLY training grants that support students from historically excluded groups (T32s and T34s, IMSD, MARC, PREP, MOSAIC, etc.)🚨 We need to push back on the loss of information and the disappearance of websites about these resources.

The flight response in #worms comes at a cost. This study defines a brain-gut pathway mediating this adaptive tradeoff, wherein #tyramine stimulates INS-3 expression in the intestine, leading to systemic activation of #insulin signaling & reduced stress resistance 🧪 @plosbiology.org plos.io/42Ek3Lz

What is the role of #epigenetic mechanisms in long-lived post-mitotic #neurons? This study shows that the histone methyltransferase Trithorax regulates the metabolic state of #MushroomBody neurons and is necessary for long term #memory formation in #Drosophila 🧪 @plosbiology.org plos.io/3PWaksa

Paper published!!! Tremendous work by Gordana Scepanovic, with key contributions by @negberry.bsky.social and @krothphd.bsky.social. We ask why is mTor signalling necessary for rapid wound repair. 🧪 #drosophila #devbio Share link: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kS2e5Sx5g...

This story is wild! Read it. It has epigenetics, long-term memory, metabolic fluxes, and sexual behaviour. I sat on Nicholas's defense committee and was a great experience. I was so happy to see it published this morning. #Drosophila

As we head into 2025, let's take one final look back at 2024 and how the year unfolded in the PDB archive. There were 15319 entries released last year but what more can we find out about those structures ⚖️? A thread 1/11 🧵
