Seeing Moonwalking flies in outreach projects has been one of the most satisfying and unexpected perk of my career! That’s a cool poster!

Amazing news! Great to see this! Congrats Barry Dickson , although don’t think he checks this site! Well deserved obviously!

The Oldenburg Lab is hiring! We have a bunch of projects using Holographic Optogenetics to test population codes, interarea connections, and generally try to understand movement. If interested in learning more, let me know. I'll be at SLB in 2.5wks we can talk there

Please RT! My lab at FLORIDA has openings for a postdoc & a technician/postbac. We use cutting-edge techniques in Ca2+ imaging, optogenetics, behavior & connectomics to study neural circuits and feeding regulation in fruit flies. Pls email me if interested. yao-lab.com/join-us

Neuroscience Postdocs: Going on the job market soon? Looking for feedback? Have a story to share? Apply by July 15th to Max Planck NeuroMEETS! Selected postdocs will be invited to MPFI to share their research, get feedback, and network with our scientists. mpfi.org/science/max-pl…

Excited to share my first paper from Inagaki Lab Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience! How does the “timer” in our brain control movement? We discovered specialized computational roles of the frontal cortex and striatum that implement such an action timer⏱️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are excited to announce the next Workshop on Neural Circuits & Behavior of Drosophila that will be held at the Orthodox Academy of Crete (OAC), Kolymbari, from June 15-21, 2025. Please RT.

If you're attending #icn2024berlin @neuroethology and 💛 motor control, drop by our poster 'Descending control of walking direction in Drosophila' on Thursday to hear about @StefanDahlhoff's exciting postdoc project. Poster Session 2 | Wall 46 | PS2.046. See you there!

Looking forward to #icn2024berlin @neuroethology with my poster on Monday (PS1.128) 👇

One discussion #onhere (sometimes healthy, often not) is what is the point of these big resources? The FlyWire issue also has papers that *use* the resource. These papers represent significant discoveries and also illustrate how the resource is likely to be used in the future 🧵

and check out this nice summary by Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience about our work.

This was a lot of fun! The Q and A with kids and adults all asking wonderful questions was my highlight! And as a bonus I got to see the FlyWire fly connectome on the dome screen of the Frost Science planetarium! Thanks Amy Robinson Sterling for sharing the video.

Fellow Fly Folks - registration for the Crete Fly Circuits meeting just opened! This will be a fun and exciting conference for everyone working on neural circuits & behavior in Drosophila 🪰. June 15 - 21/2025. And yes, the venue is right by the sea 🌊. sites.google.com/view/crete-fly…
