Ohmygosh are you kidding— the pleasure was all mine! You are even more wonderful IRL, and I’m so excited to see you again soon!! ♥️🤗 Always gonna cherish this friendship 🥹

In her latest, @rhymeswbrainy describes the organization of Drosophila larval proprioceptors in the CNS and how this differs from other types of somatosensory neurons. Check it out! doi.org/10.3389/fncir.…

I am so excited to announce the launch of a NSF Physics Frontier Center for Living Systems at UChicago! Please spread the word to folks who might want to join us as a graduate student, postdoc or technical staff! new.nsf.gov/news/4-physics…

A little late to the party. Please apply for our newly posted faculty position in Evolutionary Genetics - broadly defined- here in the Department of Human Genetics at Utah University of Utah Health. PS: the photo below was taken 15 minutes from your new lab. utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/155357

We are recruiting! If you are interested in neuronal evolution or neuronal circuits or you just enjoy generating new tools in different bugs, please consider applying. If not, please retweet :-) More information by email or DM. You can apply here: emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/UMR…

Always a joy to see you! ♥️♥️

APPLICATIONS ARE DUE THIS FRIDAY!! it has been a thrill of my life to teach this course. some come join us for another amazing summer at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory ! the CSHLflyneurocourse is the premier way to learn the state-of-the-art in development, physiology, and behavior! meetings.cshl.edu/courses.aspx?c…

Our human embryo spinal cord single cell #scRNAseq data now available through #CZCELLxGENE portal cellxgene.cziscience.com/collections/84… For full description of the dataset see the original Development paper journals.biologists.com/dev/article/14…

One of our CON graduate students, Annika Sharma (Heckscher Lab), will be presenting a talk at the Field Museum tomorrow, April 5 at 12 pm! "Cellular Evolution of Motor Systems in Insects" #FieldMuseum #GraduateStudentTalk UChicagoGRAD

What an incredible story; beautifully inspiring. Syed, Mübarak Hussain Mubarak Hussain, President JK Scientists and Assistant Professor at Univ. of New Mexico talks about his journey, passion about mentoring & training new generation of scientists. Read the story here: cell.com/current-biolog…

Congrats, Robert Carrillo!! Robert is such a powerhouse and his outreach programs have inspired countless young minds. So thrilled to see all the amazing programs that he will continue to lead!

The 2024 UChicago BSD Postdoc Symposium will be held this Friday, May 17th, in GCIS Atrium (3rd Floor)!  The Symposium is titled “What’s next? Setting up for Success” and is focused on navigating the next steps in the career development of BSD postdocs. Join us!

My favorite line from our editorial "Overall, technological advances in neuroscience follow a repetitive pattern: If you wish to know where brain science in general will be in the future, you might look at what #Drosophila researchers are doing now." 🪰🧠😈💅

Super excited for our work on the immune response during adult spinal cord regeneration to be out on biorxiv. This work has been a long time in the making and was incredibly fun to apply techniques used in mouse neuroimmunology to the adult zebrafish. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My lab at Vanderbilt University is recruiting one Postdoc and one Research Assistant to work on Spinal Cord Regeneration! Please reach out if interested!! Vanderbilt University, Vanderbilt Pharmacology, Vanderbilt Brain Institute

Preprint just dropped!🎙️We discover molecular mechanisms of the excruciatingly painful sting of the Scarlet Velvet Ant (Dasymutilla occidentalis). Title: "Multiple mechanisms of action of an extremely painful venom." 🧵 1/N biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

⁦The cancellation of Harvard grants has put FlyBase⁩ on life support. The Flybase grant is at Harvard and everything else is a subcontract. This community resource is absolutely essential! philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-cambri…
