Congrats Kai from Barry Dickson's group on this recent beautiful paper published in Nature Communications - Moonwalker will forever remain the coolest group of neurons in #drosophila nature.com/articles/s4146…

Fascinating writeup in the The New York Times about @flystocks - cool to see #drosophila work being highlighted in this way. nytimes.com/2020/12/14/sci…

Very excited to have received this yesterday at the Queensland Brain Institute, UQ end of year awards! It’s been a fantastic year in the van Swinderen Lab and I appreciate everyone’s support. 🎉


Congratulations to former PhD student and researcher powerhouse, Adekunle Bademosi! Queensland Brain Institute, UQ UQ News

Our latest article has just been published online as an early release in #eNeuro SfN Journals! We developed a novel imaging paradigm super resolution microscopy and single particle tracking using #drosophila brains. Full version soon! Congrats Adam Hines eneuro.org/content/early/…


How do we use unique fluorescent molecules to study neuroscience? Corals are helping us to understand complex problems like general anaesthesia. Thanks The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand for featuring our work, great to write for you! theconversation.com/how-lobed-brai…

Our recent paper in #eNeuro was featured in an article for the The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand, written by Adam Hines. How do corals and other ocean dwellers help us understand biology? theconversation.com/how-lobed-brai…


My article has been selected for a roundup of most-shared articles in the #eNeuro blog! Thanks SfN Journals very much looking forward to seeing the full version online soon.🥳 blog.eneuro.org/2021/05/most-s…

Our latest research is out now in full in #eNeuro SfN Journals! Congratulations, Adam Hines

#QBI researchers are using light-emitting corals and fruit flies to pave the way for understanding - and developing safer - anaesthetics. van Swinderen Lab Adam Hines UQ News qbi.uq.edu.au/article/2021/0…


Studies have shown flies can sleep. But do they sleep in stages like humans? Do these stages show micro-behaviours: analogous to REM in humans? Here, we (van Swinderen Lab) show flies do sleep in stages, show specific micro-behaviours while sleeping biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. [1/N]
