If you liked the sound of this #connectomics course but didn’t have time to apply by the original deadline — good news, the second and final deadline is Mon 17th April. Speaker and project details are being regularly added at cajal-training.org/on-site/connec…. Thanks again for RTs.

Delighted to share that our collaborative project on West syndrome with Michela Matteoli will be funded by Fondazione Telethon and Fondazione Cariplo! Open positions soon, stay tuned! Humanitas Milano CNR Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche

🪰flies can smell 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 their friends are! 🪰 feels great to see our work Cell cell.com/cell/fulltext/… thanks to the reviewers, we know more about how this happens in real-time so check out the new Figure 3 – the most fun experiments of my PhD🤓

Delighted to have contributed to such an amazing work led by István Taisz and Dana Galili! Working in Greg Jefferis lab was so much fun!

My lab is hiring! We have an open postdoc position to work on an exciting project to study novel genetic factors associated to neurodevelopmental epilepsies. Great collaboration with Michela Matteoli Davide Pozzi. Please RT! Humanitas Milano CNR Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche Fondazione Telethon

Huge congratulations for this milestone!

Would you like to shape the future of connectomics ... even neuroscience? Fresh from finishing the two largest connectomes ever, we have post-doc and research assistant positions in the Fly Connectome group Dept of Zoology (collab w MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology Scott Waddell Janelia Fly EM) Pls RT 1/4

Last 2d to apply for post-doc and research assistant positions in our #connectomics group!

📢 Following the recent approval of the five #NationalFacilities to be implemented at Human Technopole, the first calls for open positions have been published. All positions and application details are available at careers.humantechnopole.it 👉 Apply by 1 September

Join us for the 20th edition of the Italian Drosophila Conference in Milan, March 6-8, 2024!  Keynote speakers will be Florence Besse (IBV, Nizza) and Aurelio Teleman (DKFZ, Heidelberg).  Abstract submission and registation: ifom.eu/events/xx-dros… Please redistribute!

A great start to the #XXIDRC with Aurelio Teleman's keynote at IFOM The mystery of growth control! #drosophila

Social evening Fondazione Prada... Interesting piece of art for a fly meeting #XXIDRC

Do you love big data and the brain? We have #ScienceJobs for you! In Drosophila there are >11,000 cell types that define the circuit structure of the connectome – but we don't know their molecular identity. Integrating connectomes and transcriptomes would be revolutionary. RT 1/3

Apply!!!
