Welcome to the #EDRC2025 account of the 28th European Drosophila Conference which will take place in Alicante from the 25th to the 28th of September 2025! Stay tuned for the upcoming news!




Echoing @Dariloops “if you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together” @BPernaute @sermenchero @MigManzanares @MTorrescnic @nmercaderh @BorrellLab @sofiajaraujo @rosabarrio1 @andressanzm @hsancheziranzo @imaesomar @IsabelAlmudi @mirimiam & so many more…

3…2…1! 2 days to go to start our #SEBD2024 meeting at the Eden Roc Hotel at Sant Feliu de Guíxols! Stay tuned for some pre-meeting spoilers!



Today, I reflect on the legacy of @IGCiencia over the last 60 years and what it has meant for research and the scientific community in Portugal and beyond. IGC was never just a place—it was a pioneering model. #IGCLegacyLivesOn 1/5


🏅L’investigador @MarcdeManuel, de @BiologiaUB @GeneticsUB ha estat guardonat amb una Starting Grant de l’@ERC_Research per investigar l'origen de les mutacions genètiques. 🎉 Enhorabona, Marc! 🔗 Més info: web.ub.edu/en/web/actuali…

🧬 Ahir a @GeneticsUB, vam omplir els nostres laboratoris de criatures, celebrant la primera edició del "Dia de les famílies" de la secció. 🥳 Petits i grans vam gaudir d'un dia fantàstic ple d'activitats a la Facultat de @biologiaub ! 1/2

Enhorabona als investigadors @GeneticsUB que lideren els 6 projectes finançats recentment per @AgEInves: @MarcdeManuel, @jordigarciafdez, @MarcoOnATree, @IsabelAlmudi, @teresa_adell coliderat amb Cristina González i @CCarrerasHuergo coliderat amb @owenwangensteen (Dept.BEECA) 1/2

The SEBD awards @Dariloops the 2024 "José Luis Gómez Skarmeta" award. Lupiañez lab has contributed substantially to our understanding of gene regulation in the context of a 3D genome, and has just moved to @CABD_UPO_CSIC 🎉🥂🍾Congratulations!!!!


Reactive oxygen species activate the Drosophila TNF receptor Wengen for damage-induced regeneration Florenci Serras @Flrnsrrs1 et al show two fly TNFRs perform opposing functions in response to apoptosis & differ in their dependence on TNFα for activation embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
