Congratulations to Iva Greenwald and Gary Struhl on this award! Their creativity and intellectual partnership of worm and fly genetics elucidated fundamental mechanisms controlling Notch signaling - which we now know controls so many aspects of human development and disease

If using Bloomigton #Drosophila Stock Center stocks, pls. acknowledge them & their NIH funding (P40 OD018537). Papers listing this no. are being harvested as evidence. We massively depend on the @bdsc.bsky.social & they need our support in these dire times! @flybase.bsky.social @fly-eds.bsky.social

We traditionally name our microscopes after female scientists. Our latest are Hilde Mangold, who discovered embryonic organisers; Marthe Gautier, who identified the extra chromosome in Down syndrome; and Dorothy Hodgkin, who used X-ray crystallography to study molecule’s structure. #WomenInScience
