PhilipsbornLab - now on Mastodon!

How much inhibition does a male fly need to succeed with females? New preprint from the lab: doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

Yes, I migrated too- looks great over there at Mastodon! @APhilipsborn@drosophila.social

2 weeks left to apply- PhD and postdoc positions in circuit neuroscience in Switzerland! Please RT!

Paper out!!! #Drosophila has muscles that attach to their retinas, which it uses to move its photoreceptor sheet in ways that resemble vertebrate eye movements @Nature nature.com/articles/s4158…

#Drosophila friends @neurofly2024 is on twitter and looking for many followers. Please, RT, follow @neurofly2024 and express your interest to attend this cool meeting: uobevents.eventsair.com/neurofly24

Our lab is looking for 2 PhDs and a postdoc, to work on Drosophila circuit neuroscience/behavior in Fribourg, Switzerland! unifr.ch/med/de/section…

My lab at NIG Japan is looking for PhD students to work on visual circuits in mice and marmosets. If you are interested, please apply through NIG Global Scholar (NIG-GS) selection, which comes with full financial support. Application deadline: November 7. nig.ac.jp/nig/phd-progra…

Where are they now? DANDRITE group leader Anne von Philipsborn moved her lab to Switzerland to keep following her curiosity of neuronal circuits and reproductive biology and teach the next generation of biomedical researchers. Read on! bit.ly/3dUrVRE

Since they have a nervous system it is intuitive that Cnidarians can sense their environment! However little is know about sensory organs and system- here an exciting look into sensory neurons of Nematostella larvae! Congratulations to all involved!

Want to join our team @WWU_Muenster @Sfb1348? We offer a #PhD position on epithelial cell dynamics and barrier function in #Drosophila. See luschnig.uni-muenster.de/open-positions and apply by August 31st. Please RT

We are looking for a technician ideally with fly and microscope experience to finish up a paper (get co authorship) and help move the lab (and come with us if desired). Daria likes to mentor her people well; last tech got into ISTA grad school. Please RT. tinyurl.com/mr2c6hd8

@ABCmicrogrants Here come the insects:

Let us know which book would you recommend for any animal behaviour lover! 📚🦣🐕🦔🦨🐆🦭🐜

Proud to present Tabula Drosophilae - Fly Cell Atlas. In this single-cell atlas of adult fruit fly, 580,000 cells were sequenced and >250 cell types were annotated. ⁦Proud of the amazing fly community. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

@KiehnLab @BrainPrize Congratulations!

I am very happy and proud to receive the 2022 Brain Prize and to share it with Silvia Arber and Martyn Goulding. It is a great recognition of the motor field and the insight it has brought to understanding brain function, and to the many people who have contributed @BrainPrize

In collaboration with Scholars at Risk Switzerland, the SNSF is providing 1 million francs to finance researchers from #Ukraine who can be hosted at a Swiss university. Other measures are in preparation. #StandWithUkraine

#Ukraine we are opening two neuroscience scholarships for Ukrainian scientists in distress! "Titanic" priority criteria apply. Please DM me and retweet extensively! Positions already available!

Opportunities for 2-3 tenure-track faculty positions for life science at National Institute of Genetics, Mishima Japan. Apply and work with us near Mt. Fuji!

Moving ahead as planned with our meeting! there will be talks selected from abstracts so encourage your students and post-docs to submit abstracts and register at weizmann.ac.il/conferences/SD… @Lab_Tali_Kimchi @WeizmannScience

The Simpson lab is looking for new post-docs...

Looking very much forward to the Behav Neurosci Summer School in Poland this summer! nenckiopenlab.org/tbnss/
