Glad to share our latest work showing that #drosophila epigenetic enzyme TET controls muscle development independently of its catalytic activity but prevents muscle aging in a catalytic-dependent manner! Congratulations to Vincent and Emilie @igred.fr ! links.springernature.com/f/a/L1ogzL3H...

Funders must recognise that great discoveries often come from studies that seeks to advance knowledge for its own sake go.nature.com/3X5lbUg

Preparations for the next JEDI meeting are underway! The upcoming Junior European #Drosophila Investigator / #NewPI meeting is planned for Portugal in June. Final dates and additional details will be announced soon - stay tuned for updates!​

Starting Monday!!! If you are in Paris, feel free to drop in for this exceptional course!

Developmental Biology lost a giant yesterday 😔 May his legacy thrive and keep inspiring current and future generations of scientists www.gurdon.cam.ac.uk/nobel-laurea...

Here it is! Postdoctoral position to identify the progenitors sensory organs in the regenerating legs of Parhyale apply here: www.averof-lab.org/pages/tracman 1/3

Excited to share our last paper describing how intestinal stem cell migration promotes gut regeneration! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thanks to the organisers and all attendants for this great meeting #EDRC2025 . See you in Bonn! #drosophila #edrc2027

Thank you to all #EDRC2025 participants and a big applause to the organizing committee for this great #Drosophila meeting! See you all in Bonn for #EDRC2027

Dear JEDIs, as we are self-organizing using the #EDRC as a nucleator we decided it is time for a JEDI database to boost our network! If you identify as a JEDI, please contact us here or send a mail to [email protected] to be added to our database. #Drosophila @fly-eds.bsky.social

We are recruiting postdocs and PhD students! 🎓🔬 Check out the offer here 👉 igfl.ens-lyon.fr/equipes/j-en... Please share, thanks! 🙏

You just finished your PhD and you are looking for a postdoc to study stress-dependent modulation of learning. We are using the powerful fly model to understand the underlying circuits and mechanisms. You can apply here: emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/U...

We want to thank everyone who attended this year's #Drosophila JEDI meeting at Château du Feÿ! Three days of amazing talks, great ideas and chat at the camp fire. We are looking forward to meeting everyone again at the next meeting!

Formal application for 2 posts-doctoral research positions in the lab can now be submitted here: www.jobs.gla.ac.uk/job/research...

Beautiful piece of work!!! @michalis-averof.bsky.social and co!!!!

We are all super happy and proud to see our work on the function and evolution of the #cephalic #furrow published in @nature.com. Let me say a few things about the background and history of this work on the #Evolution_of_Morphogenesis (1/12)

Our new preprint is out ! We uncover how adult Drosophila muscles respond to injury through a coordinated dialogue between hemocytes, tracheal cells, and muscles. Check it out and please share @igdrennes.bsky.social

Our preprint has been highlighted by @prelights.bsky.social and @jontytownson.bsky.social ! 🙏 Huge thanks for helping us share our work with this wonderful community

I have written another #preLight post, featuring the first work from the Boukhatmi lab. Always fun to read a #fly paper, especially with #microscopy too! Check it out if you like injury repair and tissue/ECM remodeling. prelights.biologists.com/highlights/i... #Repair #ImmuneCells #preprint #ECM
