The famous odorant receptor Or67d detects different sex pheromones in Drosophila species! link.springer.com/article/10.100… Kudos to Melissa, Bill Hansson , Markus Knaden, Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology

🎉 Curious to know how it’s possible to survive without oxygen? Excited to share my postdoctoral work! We unravel how naked mole-rats endure extreme hypoxia through their unique mitochondrial adaptations! 🙏 Huge thanks to the Manx Neurobiologist lab, all collaborators and friends!

Happy to share our work on the role of non-coding transcriptional elements on a seasonal plastic trait. Also appreciate the reviewers request for clarification on transcriptional dynamics of the lncRNA highlighting its response to environmental cues! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

🧵 Really excited to share our new paper! As species diversify, sex pheromones rapidly change, but how do male mating circuits co-evolve to guide mate choice? A thread on circuit evolution & mating strategy... 1/9 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Sociality shapes mitochondrial adaptations supporting hypoxia tolerance biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 👇 Below a twittorial on Alice Rossi's great paper Alice Rossi describing the mechanisms of cellular hypoxia resistance in the naked mole-rat!👇

Proud to post our study showing that TENM4 is an essential transduction component for touch and pain. Important and groundbreaking led by Mohammed Mohammed A. khallaf with help from many like Angela Huang, Letizia Dalmasso and Sam Sampurna Chakrabarti 👇Twittorial! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

This is so cool! Takes me back almost 20-years when I started with Manx Neurobiologist & lab meetings where Jing presented data about a tether, now we have an identity!

Application deadline for 3 #neuroscience / #PainResearch positions in our group is in 1-week - more info. 👇
