FlyBase made a fly gene themed crossword puzzle for #Dros25. If you missed getting one (we have lots at the FlyBase booth), or you couldn’t be here, it’s also available online. puzzleme.amuselabs.com/pmm/c…

I uprooted my life to move to MD, took on significant debt to make it happen, and now, just weeks later, I’m left without income, health insurance, or stability. If you’re able to, please consider donating a few bucks gofund.me/a26407d0
Today, along with 2,000 other NIH employees, I had to clear out my office 😭 It was truly the honor of my life to work with such incredibly passionate people focused on improving human health.

The KU IRACDA (research/teaching) program has initiated a search for 3 postdoctoral scholars to join our program in Fall 2025! iracda.ku.edu/ If you are interested in genomics/hypoxia and using zebrafish, I'd be happy to chat about being your mentor for this opportunity

Why is an old male reproductively doomed to fail? Is it poor sperm and seminal fluid, or do females not like him and his ejaculate? doi.org/10.1093/evlett/qrae0… Now in @EvolLetters by @Krish_Sangvi, @sam_gascoigne, @TaraLynC, @iremsepil, et al. Image: Krish Sangvi & Martin Jahn

A truly extraordinary story. Black cottonwood polar trees have a complex gene acquired partly from ants and fungi, which dramatically improves the efficiency of photosynthesis in variable light, boosting biomass productivity by up to 200%. Massive implications for both agriculture and the carbon cycle... sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
