Excited to be at fly meeting! #Dros25 🪰 Come by my poster #909F and see my talk #176. My lab is hiring! including post-docs and lab techs. utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/179824

We've got a new paper on bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Super excited that my superstar friend Soni Lacefield Soni Lacefield is a AAAS fellow! She is creative and her research is amazing so check it out.

Our new preprint is out! We found an essential role for glycolysis enzyme PyK in axon and synapse integrity. PyK-deficient motor neuron synapses degenerate, driven by the DLK kinase and SARM1. Work done with Monica Dus ✨ and Catherine Collins researchgate.net/publication/39…

Just one piece of the long AOX expression story in #Drosophila—now published! Carlos_couto mdpi.com/2218-273X/15/4…

Congratulations to Wesley Sundquist, PhD, who made the 2025 #TIME100 list. His research at University of Utah Health led to lenacapavir, a drug that prevents HIV infection with 99.9% to 100% efficacy and could significantly reduce global infection rates. time.com/collections/10…

Do you have some cool results to present to the #Drosophila community at #EDRC2025 ? Please do not forget that abstract submissions are opened until the 28th of May edrc2025alicante.com/abstracts/

Had a wonderful time CSHL Meetings #cshlmetab 2025 ! Grateful to everyone who stopped by and gave feedback on my work. Spl mention AHA Science American Heart Association for supporting us AHA predoc fellows with conference support !! IU Biology Jason Tennessen #phdlife #AcademicTwitter

⁦The cancellation of Harvard grants has put FlyBase⁩ on life support. The Flybase grant is at Harvard and everything else is a subcontract. This community resource is absolutely essential! philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-cambri…

We have a call for support that has gone out to European labs, to support FlyBase-UK. We're asking our colleagues from labs in the US other countries to wait for a similar call to them that will go out in the near future, to support the US sites. We thank you for your patience.

FlyBase We ask for everyone’s patience as we establish a parallel U.S. + other country fee system at Flybase IU

See post from Brian Calvi below. Flybase at IU is setting up a means to support Flybase efforts in the US.
