What an incredible Day 1 at #BEE_2025! 🌿 From how animals weigh their choices and plant adaptations to termite farming and the surprising social lives of Jungle Babblers (who do not babble!) — we learnt so much today! Thanks to our amazing speakers for their insightful talks!✨

One of the early alumni of the @jncasr POBE programme and an excellent experimental evolutionary biologist.
In the final article of the #JOYI2025 series, @sudiptatung from @AshokaUniversity's Dept. of Biology shares how early research experiences shaped his scientific passion and the challenges of running a Drosophila evolution lab.

We've assembled the first draft of a #FlyLabList wiki.flybase.org/wiki/FlyBas…, aiming to include all labs doing Drosophila (any species) research. Our goal is to help our colleagues find Fly Labs in particular geographical locations & to gain an accurate number of Fly Labs worldwide.
