Spent a couple of afternoons working with the new #postdoc Yu-Chien and the marverick Ben Warren (mastodon less?) @NeurogeneticsLeicester22 to set up #drosophila #ERG! Feel excited about this! Such a nice end of the week

From 2019. Did we ever see what "research" the "European Research Group" did?

Absolute Premiere: Der hessische #Rundfunk berichtet darüber, dass die Erneuerbare-Energien-Richtlinie #ERG der #EU von 2018 - RED II - in #Deutschland in wesentlichen Teilen noch nicht umgesetzt ist.
