#Meeting Mondays: #Insects: friends, foes and models hosted by the Académie des Sciences will be held in Paris, France March, 12-14, 2019 Registration is free but mandatory academie-sciences.fr/en/Colloquia-C…

Nice pre-print from Dr. Ewa Chrostek and @gerth_micha :: #Wolbachia-#AnophelesGambiae

Merry microscopic Christmas! Clumped up proteins from fruit flies glow in festive form. In this composition of Drosophila cells you can see the cytoskeleton protein tubulin (grey/red), DNA (blue/yellow) and an overexpressed protein tagged with GFP (green). 📷: Catarina Carmo

This paper will bring you joy. Read it. x.com/Pselaphinae/st…

Memorandum of understanding between @IGCiencia and EMBL. With some of the understanding and collaboration already in practice via SymbNET - a network on Host-Microbe Symbiosis, Genomics and Metabolomics.

Two research technician positions in our lab to work on #Wolbachia antiviral protection and titres regulation. Join our team to start your research career in this #ERC project. Applications until 16 August. More details: cdn.gulbenkian.pt/ciencia/wp-con… please RT

Join us in the south of Portugal for the SymbNET International Conference on Host-Microbe Symbiosis. 10-13 June. Registration is open until 15th March. More details at igc.idloom.events/symbnet-confer…

Register to join! It is going to be a great meeting for sure!
