Diese Entscheidung macht wütend. Nicht rechtzeitig abgemahnt? Wusste der Mann nicht, dass er nicht seine Machtposition ausnutzen darf um sexualisierte Gewalt auszuüben? An so vielen Stellen katastrophal. Geschlechtsbezogene Gewalt wird hingenommen, was sonst.

This work shows the first overview on the population genetics and demographic history of the big European firefly, **Lampyris noctiluca**. Feeling very happy this work is out :) academic.oup.com/mbe/article/...

Big congrats to Dr. @cdegroot.bsky.social for a wonderful PhD defence @lmumuenchen.bsky.social. A big thanks to all collaborators and partner in crime @roriwijnhorst.bsky.social, and @rivers-disguise.bsky.social for producing wonderful artwork. Time to celebrate!

I recently gave an interview for the SNSF magazine about the fascinating world of black widow spiders. Here it is! 🕷️🕸️🦗 www.horizons-mag.ch/2025/06/05/h...

Deutsche Universitäten: Arbeitsethos der Mitarbeitenden vs. bereitgestellte Arbeitsmittel - ein Symbolbild. #ichBinHanna #rundumsorglos

Sogenanntes #RundumSorglos Paket

Es ist ein Schlag ins Gesicht von #IchbinHanna, der man vorgeworfen hat, sie würde Stellen „verstopfen“ oder sich auf ihnen „einkuscheln“, jetzt „Spitzenkräften“ ein - Zitat - „Rundum-Sorglos-Paket“ anbieten zu wollen. Wie anders als einen affront soll man das im Mittelbau denn bitte wahrnehmen?

Was US-Forscher_innen in D dafür bekommen sollen, dass sie ihre Arbeit machen: Rundum-Sorglos-Paket. Was #IchBinHanna dafür bekommt, dass sie ihre Arbeit macht: Kettenverträge, Arbeitsortwechsel, Pendelei, soziale Entwurzelung, leidende Beziehungen, Rauswurf. Na wenn uns das mal nicht motiviert! 🤡

Calling all European #Drosophila labs. Time for all of us, that are able, to step up to support FlyBase during this funding crisis.

We currently have a call for support that has gone out to European labs, to support FlyBase-UK. We are asking our colleagues from labs in the US and other countries to wait for a similar call to them that will go out in the near future, to support the US sites. We thank you for your patience.

#drosophila @flybase.bsky.social request emergency funding: "As it stands, by the end of July, 2025, there will be no future updates to FlyBase, and in the worst case scenario access to the website will also be lost" => please donate! www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-camb...

FlyBase needs our help.

URGENT: FlyBase has lost practically all its funding overnight; even user fees are tied up in denied grant funding. 🤬🤯 Any lab using @flybase.bsky.social please donate using the link in post below. This incredible community, on whose backs our #Drosophila labs depend, can't be left out to dry.

I really like reading the blog of @clattin.bsky.social . Feeling very honored to be in one of the interviews 😁 That was fun!

Can forward the email I received from the Europe side. They have split two funding campaigns into a US side and a Europe side. Donations must be placed through the Cambridge-linked facility for Europe via lab PO or personal payment via the following page: www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-camb...

Flybase lost all of the NIH support overnight - it is a disaster for the community. Please consider donating. I just did! www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-camb...

Did you know? 🧪 "The Interactive Fly" is a wonderful website hosted by @socdevbio.bsky.social where you can learn about their development, the history of gene discovery/name, and it is full of super useful resources for the #DevBio community 🪰https://www.sdbonline.org/sites/fly/aimain/1aahome.htm

Using data from a #spider and an #ant, we conclude that fresh samples are best, but cell culture medium preservation and to a lesser degree flash frozen tissue are good alternatives. We offer step-by-step advice for novices to #ATACseq emphasizing the importance of quality control at every stage.

We highlights challenges & strategies for successful chromatin accessibility studies to understand gene regulation in diverse #arthropods. Key takeaways: meticulous protocol optimization (nuclei isolation, Tn5 incubation, PCR) & rigorous bioinformatics QC are vital for high-quality ATAC-seq data.

You want to apply #ATACseq in your emerging model organism, but you don't know where to start? Is #ATACseq the best method for my research questions? Search no more! We got you covered with our new review: doi.org/10.1002/jez.... Excellent collaboration with @gevol.bsky.social

Geht‘s bei der #ExStra wirklich um Forschung? @drkeichhorn.bsky.social & ich haben da unsere Zweifel. Über die Inszenierung von Forschungsförderung als Gameshow, Angst um die berufliche Zukunft als Grund zum Mitspielen & Selbstvermarktung im Hochglanz-Modus schreiben wir heute in #ArbeitInDerWiss!

Wichtiger Text der wunderbaren Kolleginnen Amrei Bahr und Kristin Eichhorn zur Exzellenzinititiative. (Ist schon vor ein paar Tagen erschienen, aber ich war ein paar Tage offline und vielleicht haben ja noch nicht alle die hier formulierten Kritikpunkte zur Kenntnis genommen.)

Re-upping this: I curated a YouTube playlist on molecular biology. I use it to train undergrads and new grad students. I usually have them watch the playlist first before showing them how to do in the lab. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Auf dem Weg zum #Bundeswettbewerb #Jugendforscht. Bin gespannt was die großartigen Jungforscher*innen so ausgeklügelt haben. Eine Teilnehmerin ist von mir betreut und sie macht nen echt krassen Job. Auch die Regionalwettbewerbe sind immer einen Besuch wert. Es werden immer Jurymitglieder gesucht

🕷️🧬 Review Alert: Gene and Genome Duplications in Spiders! We are excited to share our latest work published in JEZ B: 📖 “Gene and Genome Duplication in Spiders” 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/jez.... Gene duplication is a powerful force in evolutionary innovation—and spiders offer a unique lens to study it.

Dear #ESC fans, this is a really important initiative for #LGBTIQ people in #Europe. Some countries are still below threshold. You have a few more hours to go. Please sign and have fun Voting tomorrow. eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#...
