#Drosophila research group with a heart for #scRNA seq on the search for why cells do what they do when they do it.
We’re doing #DevBio #CellBio #Cancer research led by one of the #WomenInSTEM and a #NewPI.

Came to give a talk in beautiful #Kassel at the lab of Arno Müller and leaving with lots of amazing ideas and gifts! These #Drosophila were just what we needed for our current revision. Thank you, Arno!

Our two #Drosophila fly rooms have an ongoing debate which one has the better crew. This battle is currently reaching the next dimension. Judge for yourself!

Here is a tiny glimpse into our recent work: a #pseudotime analysis of wildtype and tumorigenic #Drosophila follicle epithelial cells using #Monocle3. Seeing a bioinformatic prediction that supports our in vivo findings is always my favorite part of the day!

The lab is growing! We welcomed Hannah as a new PhD student and Anna and Lina as Master's students in the lab. I am more than thankful to be working with such a motivated, fun group of researchers!

I give you "Woman dancing with a bird"! This is a monocle analysis of our tumor model which we are currently revising. #SingleCell #Drosophila

Very much looking forward to this!
Preparations for the next JEDI meeting are underway! The upcoming Junior European #Drosophila Investigator / #NewPI meeting is planned for Portugal in June. Final dates and additional details will be announced soon - stay tuned for updates!

Amazing group of people! Thank you for the nice evening!
Update from #EDRC2025! Four days of amazing talks and poster sessions and JEDIs have reconnected across geographical boundaries. Dinner was fun and we are looking forward to everyone at the next #Drosophila conference!

Revision work of our latest #singlecell analysis generates the most peculiar pictures. Well, hello there, little seahorse!

This would be an incredible disaster to the #Drosophila community. And it sets a frightening sign for the entire scientific community. 🧪 The fly labs from @unimarburg.bsky.social are trying to organize to tackle this together.
#Drosophila @flybase.bsky.social requires emergency funding:
"As it stands, by the end of July, 2025, there will be no future updates to #FlyBase, and in the worst case scenario access to the website will also be lost". Please help if you can!

We currently have a call for support that has gone out to European labs, to support FlyBase-UK. We are asking our colleagues from labs in the US and other countries to wait for a similar call to them that will go out in the near future, to support the US sites. We thank you for your patience.

Apparently we do not have a JEDI starter pack yet.
