New Lab paper! “Rapid threat assessment in the Drosophila thermosensory system” nature.com/articles/s4146…

@SarahBecan And of course, great science by many Gallio Lab members, some not on here. Including first author Jenna Jouandet and, not in order, @Dom_Frank3 @technoshaman_ @josh__levy Miguel Simoes, Richard Suhendra, Bill Kath and last but not least Alessia Para.

Feeling like taking a nap during 🌞the heat? A need for 😴midday siesta appears to be hardwired in the brain. A new study from @technoshaman_ @GallioLab reveals a temperature-sensitive circuit promoting #sleep in hot conditions. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New HOT paper from the Lab out today in @CurrentBiology ! authors.elsevier.com/a/1fbcJ_LsQSPT…

Our new paper is finally out🥂🕺💃! We study how flies escape heat and compare their behavior to that of simple "Braitenberg Vehicles" scaled down to fly-size

The work was a close collaboration between PD Miguel Simoes and @josh__levy, a ⭐️ applied math PhD student co-supervised with Bill Kath. Thanks to all co-authors Alessia Para, @LeahVinson15, @EmanuelaZahari2 , Fred Zhao, @technoshaman_ .. it was a long journey but we made it!

For the one or two who may have missed @MarcusStensmyr 's earlier, this is new paper is the newest from our longstanding collaboration cell.com/current-biolog…

I've been away from twitter for a while, what did I miss? ...Excited to share new work from the lab by PD @technoshaman_ and former GS Dominic Frank on how flies sense and respond to COLD temperature! Many years in the making.. cell.com/current-biolog…

Absolutely beautiful morning for a 7am run around @CSHL. Happy to see some new faces too. Missing from the photo @ScottishWaddell @Annika_Barber who were still running! #cshldros #cshlrungroups

Smal but mighty crew for the 7am run this morning at #cshldros! #notmadeofsugar #cshlrungroups

First morning run complete! Thanks for joining in; everyone back safe and sound! #cshldros #cshlrungroups

Hello CSHL Neurobiology of Drosophila runners! Join @RodalLab, @Annika_Barber, and me Wednesday 7am in front of Grace Auditorium for an easy morning run. Please R/T and spread the word! Follow #cshlrungroups for updates and schedules Cc @drosophilosophy @cshlmeetings

Actually, Evan got the Routhenberg prize and Avi the Margliash - both for work in my Lab. Ops!
