How are tissue folds stabilized during animal organ development? Our latest preprint helps to answer this question, using the fruit fly wing disc as a model doi.org/10.1101/2025.... @poldresden.bsky.social @mpipks.bsky.social @dfg.de @janafuhrmann.bsky.social @vicioms.bsky.social @mbisg.bsky.social
Apical extracellular matrix regulates fold morphogenesis in the Drosophila wing disc
Tissue folding is a fundamental process occurring in animal organ development. Here, we study the progression of fold shape and the underlying mechanics in the development of the Drosophila wing disc....

Model organism communities are fantastic. Good work, "Drosophilists"! www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Giant study finds a research field that’s mostly reproducible
Researchers assessed more than 1,000 results from fruit-fly immunity research published between 1959 and 2011. The majority of findings look verifiable.

Fantastic thread about our latest paper from earlier this year!
I love seeing so many interesting papers on Bluesky and my reading list keeps growing. So I would like to share a thread about our paper from this year. It was published when we were still at *the other place*, and I didn't feel like writing about it there.
