Huge congratulations to our second year student Navyashree Ramesh who just passed her prelim exam. 🎉 Here is Navya presenting her very popular poster at #Dros23 recently. #drosophila

Congratulations to our friends at @FlyBaseDotOrg, who are very active in contributing to the #GeneOntology at many levels!

Are you graduating soon and interested in genetic conflict, chromosomes, and/or the early embryo?

The Levine Lab @PennBiology @PennEpiInst @PennGenomeInteg is hiring postdocs and technicians. Please get in touch to learn more. And please retweet! 🙏

#Dros23 Join our citizen science project #melanogasterCTF currently running in Europe and South America. Learn more at poster 1083 today. DM me if you want to set a time to talk other than at poster session

New paper from the lab, just in time for #Dros23! We show how Yorkie and its new interactor Bonus control cell fate decisions in the fly eye. Here is a link to download (free until April 21):

This was a great collaboration with Ken Moberg's lab. Our work highlights functions of the #Hippo pathway that are not related to growth control. All of the experiments were done by inimitable Heya Zhao @HeyaZhao

WOOOO! Congrats to my friend @DrGlam who's being honored right now at #Dros23 for a *lifetime* of service to the Drosophila community!

Rap1 optogenetics and its effect on embryonic morphogenesis - Poster 566T - tomorrow at #Dros23

Super excited to be at #Dros23 this year! My first in-person conference where I am presenting my work. Do stop by my poster (566T) tomorrow at 2 PM! Me and my cats staring at optogenetic Rap1 perturbation phenotype in the embryo. Stop by my poster for more!

@PetrovADmitri and I have been working with amazing Drosophila collaborators to broadly sequence the diversity of this group. We believe it is now technically feasible to sequence all >4,400 species, and have organized a #Dros23 workshop to engage the community in this effort.

On my way to #Dros23 in Chicago. Looking forward to stimulating talks, posters and discussions!

On this eve of #Dros23 I am excited to share that we will have three unpublished stories presented: 1. Poster # 343 F by grad student Navya presenting a new fly model for #postmitotic regeneration 2. Talk # 44 by postdoc Deena presenting our most recent work on #polyploidy in the fly brain and 3. Talk # 79 by research scientist Liz presenting new work examining the interplay of cell cycle exit and #terminaldifferentiation. Come see our new work using our favorite model organism #drosophila

Today #Dros23 starts with the #CRISPR workshop. Join us at 10 am (CT) for the latest in modifying the bestgenome™️.

If you've seen one fruit fly...
You haven't seen them all.
