Love this example of how #Drosophila researchers have fun assigning fly gene names.

Cool example of how research in flies can lead to health-relevant discoveries in mammals 🪰🐭🧬
Check this out from @SilvermanNeal and team

For all the innate immunity tweeps out there, I am very excited to share our newest story on the role of SLC46s in muropeptide sensing in mammals: doi.org/10.1101/2022.0…. This story was the labor of love for a very talented and fearless postdoc @RaviBha47100419. 1/17

Another one! This time from @ChowLab postdoc @HansMDalton! A collab with Perimon lab & @smohrfly. Hans wanted to find modifiers of DPAGT1-CDG, a disorder of N glycosylation. 2 cell based CRISPR screens with lots of in vivo validation. 1/ journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…

Loving this thread on low-tech portable anesthetic set-ups for fly research
“the lowest-tech option is literally breathing on a bunch of flies”

Have had **amazing** interactions talking genetic technologies and insect biology with teachers and students thru @SkypeScientist
Filled me with optimism for the future of science
Sign up! Spread the word!

Mention Daft Punk, Drosophila, and chocolate, all in one short essay?
Yes. Did that!
Excited to celebrate Bug Week with @Orion_Magazine
Orion Magazine@Orion_Magazine
In a recent Twitter poll, an entomologist asked his followers to choose their favorite bug out of 4 options: wasps, beetles, flies, or moths. Flies lost. Big time. So for #BugWeek, one biologist is here with an important message: flies can be cool, too! orionmagazine.org/article/5-flie…

It was a pleasure to work on this piece with @sioroberts and @nytimes, who brought the mystery and beauty of development and collaboration to more readers than we can reach with the primary scientific literature alone. nytimes.com/2022/08/05/sci…🧵1/4

Great advice for folks at any career stage from the @GeneticsGSA ECLP communications team!

Any ideas why I saved this mini-CD from @ScienceMagazine ? Special issue? Fancy tech in its day?
