What better time to read about sick flies mating than while lying in bed with COVID? @SaloniRose2 and @crezaval find that male and female flies infected even with virulent bacteria still maintain precopulatory reproductive behaviors. doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2…

How do animals prioritise and balance their investment in immune defence and reproduction? Check out our work led by @SaloniRose2 on the trade-off between reproduction and immunity: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… Great collaboration with @marcsdionne, @BeckwithEsteban and @RobinMay9.


Infection day ! 🤞🤞🤞🤞 Let' see how it goes! #drosophila #bacteria



Yesterday was a great day too visit my alma mater @Exactas_UBA for teaching bacterial genomics for the bacterial genetics course. Thanks Julia Pettinari for the invitation! I also had great lunch with @BeckwithEsteban. So lucky off having such great collaborators!



Very happy to announce that our paper on the trade-off between #reproduction and #immunity has been accepted for publication. Tour de force paper from the mighty @SaloniRose2 #Proud PI. Great collaboration with @marcsdionne @BeckwithEsteban and @RobinMay9 Stay tuned!
