As a recent course alumna, I highly recommend this course to all Drosophila neuroscientists!

Our lab is hiring! Wonderful opportunity to get trained in neurogenetics, behavior, and imaging techniques! Please apply!

Our new paper is out in @currentbiology.bsky.social where we address the question of why self-sustenance, a defining feature of circadian clocks might have been selected, when environments on Earth are rarely constant! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #circadian #cyanobacteria #evolution

I’ll be co-chairing a session on Neural Circuits and Behavior at #Dros26! 🪰 Fly neuro friends, please submit abstracts! Our session will be 🔥 Deadline Nov 13

New publication from our lab, in Science Advances: Synaptic targets of circadian clock neurons influence core clock parameters www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

New publication from our lab: Sexually dimorphic and clock gene-specific effects of artificial light at night on Drosophila behavioral rhythms royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

A phenomenal talk and a fantastic kickstart to our fall gcdb seminar series by @mariadelapax.bsky.social this afternoon! @iubiology.bsky.social 👏🏽🎉

Congratulations to IU biology Ph.D. candidate Shefali Shefali on receiving the prestigious American Heart Association Predoctoral Fellowship! 📷 Pictured below: Shefali with her Ph.D. adviser, Associate Professor of Biology Jason Tennessen. 📖 Read more: go.iu.edu/8srl

New preprint from our lab! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Excited to share my new #preprint with @erikherzog.bsky.social! By mapping the functional #connectome of the #SCN using 3000+ hours of recordings from 9000+ cells in 17 mice, we explored how mammalian clock neurons synchronize to produce #circadian rhythms. (1/n)

International students and postdocs are deprived of opportunities to apply to several fellowships because of US citizenship or permanent residency requirements. Kudos and gratitude to organizations like the American Heart Association that recognize talent regardless of citizenship.

Calling #Drosophila #grad students #postdoc and #pretenure #faculty to participate in FlyCROSS and be matched by a #mentor of your preferences to gain guidance to your unique needs ! #genetics #dros25 #phdlife @flybase.bsky.social @bdsc.bsky.social
