We were very excited to see this preprint. We wonder if this could be the same target suggested by our data, and/or the same one that Martin Kelly has identified in mammals.

This is unexpected but not unheard of, and has been observed in a few other contexts. @clot1.bsky.social 's group recently reported a similar finding on thrombosis in zebrafish:

We think there is another critical estradiol target that awaits characterization.
Hormone-induced thrombosis is mediated through non-canonical fibrin(ogen) aggregation and a novel estrogen target in zebrafish
Venous thrombosis is a well-known complication of sex hormone therapy, with onset typically within weeks to months after initiation. Worldwide, more than 100 million pre-menopausal women use combined ...

Our latest work is now up on bioRxiv. It describes our attempts to identify the receptor that mediates the effect of estradiol on habituation learning in larval zebrafish.
doi.org/10.1101/2025...
Estradiol promotes habituation learning via an unidentified target, bypassing the suppressive effects of established Estrogen Receptors
Habituating to the constant stimuli in the environment is a critical learning process conserved across species. We use a larval zebrafish visual response to sudden darkness as a model for studying hab...

If you have been affected by the fires in LA, or are concerned about your ability to keep precious Drosophila strains going during the latest funding crisis, we will host your strains as a backup. Please email me.

Please amplify. If you are also able to host fly strains, add your name as well.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
