Carolina is a wonderful person and scientist, her lab is highly recommended!!

We have got a great program. ⏰⏰Time to register to our @fens.org Satelite 👉 youngpisymposium2026.com

The School of Biosciences @unibirmingham.bsky.social is recruiting five Assistant/Associate Professors working across a range of areas, including neuroscience. Join a vibrant interdisciplinary research environment. Deadline: 14 April 2026 edzz.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...

Check out this cool new preprint by the Rezeval lab on goal directed behaviors

Registration and abstract submission for the international CE neuro meeting are now open!

Registrations are now open !!! Come join us at @fens.org Forum 2026….

C. elegans enthusiasts- save the date for two consecutive C. elegans meetings, taking place in Bordeaux, 29 June–3 July 2026. Abstract submission will open around January, with many opportunities for oral presentations. Check out our website for more details: ceneuroeuro2026.sciencesconf.org.

Such a fine resource for the community! 👏👏🙏

I share Alon’s hope : "I look forward to the day when Israeli scientists can freely collaborate with scientists in Iran and do good for the region and for humanity. I wish the same for scientists in Gaza and throughout the Middle East." @WeizmannScience www.nature.com/articles/d41...

For #worm25, here are updated lists of 200+ researchers for the #Celegans community to easily follow: C. elegans #1 (150 full) - go.bsky.app/HP1h3nW C. elegans #2 (50+) - go.bsky.app/J7soTHG ==> Reply to this if you'd like to be added! cc: @genetics-gsa.bsky.social #CeleganSky 🪱 🧪 1/n

I am excited (as usual) about attending #Worm25. But I am also sad that so many friends and colleagues can't be there. Because you know....insane policies and war and such. Hoping the science will provide at least a temporary distraction from the unending chaos.

I think we just witnessed the first ever nematode ménage a trois! #worm25

Today! Correction- 1PM eastern not 12:30 🫣

C. elegans enthusiasts - join me and @stern-lab.bsky.social ‪‪for a pre #worm25 meeting online workshop on *Monitoring inter-individual diversity across multiple levels and timescales* - Jun 26, 2025 12:30 PM Eastern Time us06web.zoom.us/j/8544967372... please share!

Register now!

Don’t miss out on #theconferencetoendallconferences @odedrechavi.bsky.social @itaiyanai.bsky.social @svobodalab.bsky.social @meital.bsky.social and many more will be there! 🪇🪈🪗🪕

How do different sources of variation, acting on distinct timescales, integrate to shape behavioral diversity? It was a pleasure writing this review with Meital Oren-Suissa @meital.bsky.social and Steve Flavell. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Neuromodulation, sex specific responses, peptides, oh my!

After a long wait, our paper is out! We show that differences in learning between the sexes are modulated by the NPY receptor, which gates sensory perception. Great work by PhD student, soon to be Dr, Sonu Kurien www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Co-wrote w/ Rohini this hopefully easily understandable article @thehindu.com on curiosity driven research w/ the worm, its many contributions to scientific advances, including several Nobels. 🙏🏾 @1amnerd.bsky.social & Upendra Kulkarni for editing www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/sci...

Fascinating talk by @ella-pbn.bsky.social today a Weizmann’s dev club, on the evolution and regulation of complex morphologies in #drosophila

Awesome to be highlighted by @naturecellbiology.bsky.social #science #art #MBR #midbody #extracellularvesicles @uwmadscience.bsky.social

In time for the new year! Our single-cell dataset of male and hermaphrodite brains is online! & a freely available website weizmann.ac.il/dimorgena/ A Blueprint of Sex-Specific Neuronal Regulation in the C. elegans Nervous System at Single-Cell Resolution www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Turns out parental brains are thinking about offspring. @odedrechavi.bsky.social @bjornschumacher.bsky.social @meital.bsky.social Impressive!

Thank you ERC for the generous support 🤩

Reposting because of the great influx of people here. Long story short: like inhibitory DREADDs but with light and switchable.
