Our opinion can impact the future of european science and strengthen Drosophila research. Lets go!
Be part of the change: have your say in the public consultation for the #EUResearchArea Act!
The European Commission wants to strengthen research and improve conditions for researchers, and your opinion matters.

Thanks Babis!
Indeed, I love it when simple experiments can sometimes just be enough 🤩
Not everything necessarily needs the heavy OMICs weapons 😜 (And this is from someone who loves genomics!!)

The last (but not least) featured keynote speaker is Wei Zhang from Peking-Tsinghua Center for Life Sciences. Her research focuses on integrating experimental and computational approaches to investigate evolutionary innovation and functional diversification at the levels of micro and macroevolution.

#RosalynYalow rewrote the rules. Nobel laureate, co-inventor of radioimmunoassay, she proved type 2 diabetes stems from insulin resistance. In a world that doubted her, she proved science needs women—always has.

🧐 What's happening here? It may not be obvious but they're cells competing between each other.

⚔️ This battle of red vs green is one of @milanlab.bsky.social 's findings: aneuploid cells are actively eliminated by neighbouring cells through cell competition.
