Fruit Flies Are Essential to Science. So Are the Workers Who Keep Them Alive. - The New York Times nytimes.com/2020/12/14/sci…

My first first author paper is out on biorxiv! Many lockdown hours were spent doing this. Thank you especially to Caroline Hoppe, amazing post-doc, who helped me push this over the finish line when we were allowed back to the lab.

Some people puzzled as to how to square AstraZeneca's 94% here with the 62% efficacy from trial data. Simple: 62% was reduction in cases, 94% is reduction in hospital admissions. Or in other words 62% reduction in being infected, vs 94% reduction in becoming seriously ill.

Ever wondered how to image Drosophila ovaries live? We have a protocol for you from the talented Scott Wilcockson. His secret weapon is an eyelash on a stick and he uses a blood clot to immobilise the ovaries for imaging. star-protocols.cell.com/protocols/506 STAR Protocols

It is two paper Friday in the Ashe lab! 🪰 If you are looking for in-depth protocols covering MS2 live imaging and CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing in Drosophila, we've got you covered. Protocols by Caroline Hoppe star-protocols.cell.com/protocols/518 star-protocols.cell.com/protocols/519 STAR Protocols

This is so cool!

I'm excited to be giving a short talk at YEN 2021 on May 4th!

The Ashe lab has two poster prize award winners at this year’s #BSDBGenSoc2021 conference 🎉 Congrats and well done to the PhD student prize runner up Daisy Vinter and postdoc prize winner Caroline Hoppe! A great end to a wonderful conference week #bsdb #devbio

Last week to register for #YEN2021 ⚠️ Don't miss the chance to e-meet other early career researchers in the #devbio field youngembryologists.org/yen-2021/

Well done England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿! Absolutely FANTABULOUS! Thank you for lifting our spirits! With you! You are now unstoppable. The plan is working. And luck has nothing to do with it. Thank you. John Sentamu

What can I say! You have been on an incredible journey ! But it is a harsh and cruel end. But thank you for giving us hope and self-belief! We support you for the future! Much love and thank you Team England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Euros2020

The Ashe lab is hiring, please share and RT! We are looking for a postdoc to study how signalling filopodia collect and transduce the BMP signal to control cell fate. Check out our recent work on cytocensors here: cell.com/developmental-… #postdocjobs 🪰🔬 bit.ly/3hCfI3r

Accomplishing next to nothing, the grad student is still exhausted.

Congratulations to our Sophie Frampton who passed her PhD viva last Tuesday! She's available for all your Cryo-EM/Drosophila genetics needs 🪰🍾🎉 We had fun celebrating - Colin the Caterpillar transformed into Derek the Drosophila courtesy of Gareth Moore Jennifer Love

Only 24 hours until our Development presents… webinar featuring talks from Daisy Vinter (@AsheLab), Ping Wu Keck School of Medicine of USC and Yan Gong (龚䶮) & Dominique Bergmann, chaired by our Editor-in-Chief James Briscoe Register here: virtual.biologists.com/e/development-…

Springing into March with a new preprint from us and @MagnusRattray! A great collaborative project from Lauren Forbes Beadle, Jennifer Love and Yuliya Shapovalova investigating mRNA degradation in the Drosophila embryo. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great start to #BSCBDB22 with Lauren sharing her exciting work on dosage compensation in the early Drosophila embryo 🪰🔬 thank you to all the fantastic speakers today!

Interested in the extracellular regulation of BMP signalling? 🪰 Or are gene expression dynamics more your cup of tea? 🔬 Come and meet our fab postdocs and PhD students at the poster session at #BSCBDB22 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬
