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

This was the last @hhmi.org conference Lilly and Yuh-Nung Jan attended as investigators. They're becoming HHMI emeritus but still run a thriving NIH-funded lab. From cloning the first potassium ion channel (Shaker) to decoding neuronal development, the Jans have made a huge impact.

We're so happy to hear this—makes it all worth it!
And we second a shoutout to our fantastic organizers, Todd Nystul, Michelle Bland, @leilarieder.bsky.social, Amanda Croker, & @justinmcrocker.bsky.social 👏
We'd love to hear about fruitful collabs born from #Dros25 🪰 Tag us or DM us your stories!
Special thanks to the organizers of the #Dros25 @genetics-gsa.bsky.social! Fantastic conference that provides opportunities for undergrad students to present their work and for trainees at all levels to network. The Fly Meeting fosters a welcoming environment, which makes it a joy to attend 🪰❤️

It was a great pleasure to speak at the Single-cell Research Workshop organized by @perrimonlab.bsky.social and Professor Hongjie Li at #DROS25. It’s exciting to see all the rapidly evolving work diving deep into the diverse aspects of biological processes!

Pavel Tomancak asks everyone who uses FIJI in the crowd to stand ... and dammit, 90% of the crowd stood. What a testament to the power of such tools. #DROS25

All editors rely on Pol3 because we use its promoters to transcribe the gRNA from plasmid vectors.
I never thought something so cell-essential would be regulated.
-> food for thought wrt editing cell types in various states.
