Great GfE/DSDB meeting in Osnabrück. Many thanks to the organizers, Kerstin, Achim and Maja! #GfE2024

Great to be at #ECF2024 in Birmingham! Dennis Klug from the Bogdan Lab is presenting exciting work on CYRI, a molecular brake on the Rac-WRC-Arp2/3 pathway to slow down epidermal wound healing (poster P066).

Ein Herz so groß wie ein Stecknadelkopf: Uni Osnabrück untersucht Herzklappen von Fruchtfliegen Gerade einmal zweieinhalb Millimeter messen die Fruchtfliegen (Drosophila melanogaster), an denen die Arbeitsgruppe der Zoologie und Entwicklungsbiologi... nachrichten.idw-online.de/2024/05/14/ein…

A cell videoed through a microscope. Zyxin (green) and actin filaments (purple) are shown. #CellBiology

#cellbiology #bioart The actin #cytoskeleton (green) is linked to a variety of transmembrane proteins through alpha-actinin (magenta), with such linkages being particularly dense in membrane ruffles and filopodia. As seen at 3 frames/min for 8 min by linear and non-linear

This week the annual Drosophila Retreat took place in Hirschegg, Kleinwalsertal. We spent four days with exciting scientific talks and great hikes in the Allgäu Alps. Many thanks to everyone for this outstanding event! #BogdanLab, #ReiffLab, #GrosshansLab, #Aberle & #PaululatLab

Can a fly be an object of intricate beauty? 🪰 We sure think so! Just look at these stunning images from the latest chapter of #FlyBook in #GENETICS: bit.ly/3NfI0Q8 1/2 🧵

Christmas breakfast at Bogdan Lab Merry Christmas!

Von Behring-Röntgen Foundation supports ten pioneering research projects in Marburg and Giessen, including Katja Rust (@KatjaRust) from our department for her exciting Drosophila cachexia cancer project. Congratulations!

Congrats to Dr Mila Höhne for completing her great defense on novel regulators in invasive collective cell migration
