FlyBase, a Drosophila database, will lose a third of its team in early October because the Harvard grant that covered the employees’ salaries was canceled. Scientists warn that losing FlyBase could devastate fly research.

Harvard University lays off fly database team
The layoffs jeopardize this resource, which has served more than 4,000 labs for about three decades.

Curious about epigenetics, gene regulation, and developmental biology?
Apply for the PhD position in Mannervik lab at Stockholm University!
We use single-cell genomics and genetic approaches to uncover how cells acquire their identities during development. Explore the chromatin landscape with us!

Excited to share our new paper in @cp-molcell.bsky.social Molecular Cell: "Catalytic-dependent and independent functions of the histone acetyltransferase CBP promote pioneer-factor-mediated zygotic genome activation" — the big part of my PhD! www.cell.com/molecular-ce...
Catalytic-dependent and independent functions of the histone acetyltransferase CBP promote pioneer-factor-mediated zygotic genome activation
Marsh, Pirogov, et al. use the early Drosophila embryo to demonstrate that the conserved histone acetyltransferase CBP is required for pioneer-factor-mediated transcriptional activation of the zygotic...
