@jiarui219.bsky.social and I really enjoyed reading this paper and having the opportunity to summarize the key findings! We couldn't possibly cover everything cool about the paper, so I encourage you to give it a deep dive yourself!

A lot of exciting things have been happing in the @rothenberglab.bsky.social so we have been keeping really busy. A few of us are at #Dros26 to share our science. Come by one of our posters to say hi!

I’m so sad to have missed the Midwest Drosophila Conference due a nasty cold. But some of my students made the journey and had a great time! @jiarui219.bsky.social gave a talk to open up the conference, @briod613.bsky.social gave a very successful poster, and Aiza joined for her first conference!
