(1/5) My first paper on ants with @DanielKronauer is out! We discovered that ant pupae secrete the molting fluid, and adults and larvae drink it. Young larvae need the fluid for growth and survival, and pupae die if the fluid is not removed. Open access: nature.com/articles/s4158…

@MeitalOren Thank you so much for joining us @RockefellerUniv and sharing your incredible work! It was an absolute pleasure to host you!

Had a really nice visit yesterday at Rockefeller University, tnx @OrliSnir for inviting me! Today, looking forward to catching up with colleagues at Columbia

Way to go @OrliSnir! Orli, of @DanielKronauer's lab, has been named a 2023 #STATWunderkinds by @statnews for her discovery of ant "milk" that unites ant colonies across developmental stages. Learn more here: statnews.com/wunderkinds-20…

“Today, we urge each and every one of you to stand with us against terrorism. Just as we seek truth and understanding in science, so too must we seek truth in the world we inhabit. The power of the scientific community is immense, and our voices can resonate far beyond the walls of our laboratories. The recent events have shaken us to the core. But they have also reminded us of the importance of our collective power and action, and the impact we can have on the world. We must recognize that, as scientists, our words carry weight and our public statements have the power to influence opinions, policies, and, ultimately, the course of history. In the face of darkness, let our voices be the guiding light.” This letter, titled “Standing Together Against Terror and Violence”, was sent today from the Weizmann Institute of Science Management to the international science community.

Congratulations, Rachel! Great work!

@DanielKronauer Thanks Daniel 🙏

Congratulations indeed @OrliSnir! 🎉 🐜 🍾

Thank you @RockefellerUniv

This paper is far too cool to be in Cell. Did they steal it off the Current Biology editor's desk? doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…

Contamination in your #microbiome data? SCRuB it out!! SCRuB is our new decontamination method for #microbiome data, out today @NatureBiotech. Wonderful collaboration w/ @tkorem, led by the talented George Austin. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congratulations, Ana Badimon!

@DanielKronauer @CellCellPress @CellPressNews @teraxurato @RockefellerUniv Congrats!

Our first neurogenetic study of ants survived peer review and just appeared OA in its final form @CellCellPress @CellPressNews: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…. @teraxurato & team @RockefellerUniv created the first transgenic ants and identified a sensory hub for alarm behavior. 1/8

An algorithm developed in part by @LiatShenhav, dubbed SCRuB, can distinguish native bacteria and viruses from contaminants—a powerful tool for researchers working with the microbiome. #RockefellerScience rockefeller.edu/news/34179-new…

Researchers tell @metricausa about care-taking of young plants, ants, mice, zebrafish, cichlids, cephalopods. Includes: @ashvparker_ash, K. Slanchev, Baier lab @MPIforBI, @CarrieOcto @MBLScience, @OrliSnir @DanielKronauer nature.com/articles/s4159…

#Throwback to Ant Course 2022 in Vietnam We are currently 52 days away from Ant Course 2023 in Papua New Guinea! If you have attended an Ant Course before please comment a favorite memory you have from it 🐜

@sonkelab @yaojj02 Such a cool story!

So rewarding to see years of work led by Carlos Taboada and Jesse Delia in three labs (mine, @yaojj02, Lauren O’Connell) finally come to fruition. Short version: glassfrogs maintain transparency by hiding their red blood cells in their mirrored livers. nytimes.com/2022/12/22/sci…

Sorry, too excited to not brag a little: clonal raider ants are on the cover of Nature 🤓 @OrliSnir @RockefellerUniv nature.com/nature/volumes…

@innalax Thanks Inna!🙏

Congratulations @OrliSnir ! So exciting!

@eyalprivman @DavidsonOnline תודה רבה אייל🙏

@OrliSnir @DavidsonOnline חלב הנמלים זה סיפור נפלא אורלי! מאמר נהדר. וגם מעניין הרקע שלך מהבחינה שעבדת על דברים מאוד שונים בדוקטורט לפני שהחלטת לעבור לנמלים (קצת דומה למסלול שלי)

מהנש'מדע ◀️ חלב של נמלים, כמו ברווז - אבל דינוזאור, המוח שהקדים את הראש והחיסון המלכותי של הכוורת. המחקרים החדשים ביותר 👇👇👇 bit.ly/3FbtVPp
