Ever wondered what mitochondria are doing during memory formation? Have a look at our latest work in @CurrentBiology 👇 Spaced training activates Miro/Milton-dependent mitochondrial dynamics in neuronal axons to sustain long-term memory: cell.com/current-biolog…

@OwaldD Congratulations x2!

Thanks to the best lab ever for this wonderful gift while celebrating Carlotta‘s paper… and yeah, tenure 😀

#JournéeMondialeAlzheimer: Les travaux de Thomas Preat @EnergyMemoryLab sur les liens entre apport énergétique et création de la mémoire chez les drosophiles au JT de @France3tv, une piste prometteuse chez l'humain. france.tv/france-3/12-13… Avec le soutien de la @FRM_officiel

@ManuPerisse @CurrentBiology Congrats Manu!

@crezaval @unibirmingham Super news! Congrats Carolina 👏

Very happy to share that I got promoted to Associate Professor @unibirmingham Thankful to all mentors, colleagues and friends who have supported me/inspired me along the way. Most importantly, HUGE thanks to my awesome lab. They made this possible.

Please, RT and help me find cool people to join our team! #Postdoc and #technician posts available in our lab to understand how animals make decisions when faced with conflicting situations. Apply and find more info here: rezavallab.org/open-positions… Closing Date: 11/08/22

Alice Pavlowsky from @EnergyMemoryLab will be presenting her work at the last poster session of the #FENS2022. Come and check S07-742 poster for insights about mitochondria motility during memory formation!!

@Drosostalis Thanks for the kind words Dafni! 🙏

Our institute is seeking a new Drosophila team to recruit! Please consider, diffuse, RT...!! 👇👇 bio.espci.fr/-Job-offer-57-

Our grand début on BioRxiv! Nice piece of science from @yasrbh and @RachFR on glia/neuron metabolic coupling during memory formation. Have a look!👇

I have not tweeted much about papers in our pages recently, but if you have not seen this one yet, here is a lovely #drosophila paper on a fascinating metabolic exchange between brain cells from @EnergyMemoryLab nature.com/articles/s4225…

Proud 😊 to be on the cover of @NatMetabolism with our story on #glia feeding #ketones to sustain starving neurons @INSB_CNRS @ESPCI_Paris @psl_univ

Latest from the lab: glia gets ketogenic upon starvation to fuel memory. Read the full story here: nature.com/articles/s4225… Beautiful PhD work from @SilvaBryon1. Congrats to him and all co-authors!

@biozentrum @AnissaKempf @ERC_Research @UniBasel_en Congratulations Anissa!

Congratulations to @AnissaKempf for receiving the @ERC_Research Starting Grant to investigate the molecular basis of #sleep. “The grant will be a huge boost for my group and hopefully encourage excellent researchers to join our team.” @biozentrum @UniBasel_en @ERC_Research

@ikadow @UniBonn Congrats Ilona! Glad that you are (slightly) closer to Paris 😉. Hope everything will be smooth for the moving, and I look forward to seeing your new lab!

My lab is moving! So excited about our many fantastic future neuroscience colleagues and grateful for this new opportunity. @UniBonn P.S. Always looks like this there. And best Ayran ever!

Hey all, we are looking for a technician to join our lab in Paris at the @ParisBrainInst, starting Jan 2022! We are a group of nice folks doing molecular neuroscience waiting for our next colleague to join us! Info here: dejuansanzlab.org/technician-ope…

@G_Pask I'd recommend Rainbow as well

Thanks again to @FRM_officiel ! A nice and timely acknowledgement of what Drosophila can bring to biomedical research!

Tonight at Collège de France: Thomas receiving the prestigious Brixham Foundation Prize, awarded by the @FRM_officiel. Congrats from all the team!👏👏
