Dear JEDIs,
as we are self-organizing using the #EDRC as a nucleator we decided it is time for a JEDI database to boost our network! If you identify as a JEDI, please contact us here or send a mail to katja.rust@uni-marburg.de to be added to our database.

We want to thank everyone who attended this year's #Drosophila JEDI meeting at Château du Feÿ! Three days of amazing talks, great ideas and chat at the camp fire. We are looking forward to meeting everyone again at the next meeting!

Good food, nice venue, exceptional company and fantastic science. Food for body, soul and mind. My impression is that's the chemistry of a good flyJEDI meeting @fly-jedi.bsky.social
