Model organisms, in particular non-mammalian model organisms, such as yeast, Caenorhabditis elegans, #Drosophila and zebrafish, have long stood at the centre of biological discovery www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Reaffirming the value of model organisms in training scientific minds - Nature Cell Biology
As biomedical research prioritizes human models and translational promise, classic model organisms are increasingly dismissed. Here we argue that they have a lasting value, both in enabling discovery and in cultivating scientific thinking, by training researchers in systems reasoning, integrative thinking and independent inquiry.

To the Drosophila community: please cite the original source and support the outstanding contribution of public databases and stocks collections.
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

Ideally, we'd like authors to cite a recent FlyBase publication. There's a blue box with the text "Citing FlyBase' on our homepage that takes you a page detailing how to cite us wiki.flybase.org/wiki/FlyBase...

🧠 Glioblastoma is a deadly brain cancer. Our research identifies VP3.15, a molecule that reduces tumor growth—but only in patients with a specific genetic profile (PTEN+). A step toward personalized treatments! 💡 #BrainCancer #PrecisionMedicine #Glioblastoma
