π§ͺ What if evolution breaks its own rules?
HFSP-supported research shows that pleiotropic genes, long thought too constrained to evolve, can in fact drive adaptation.
A big-data rethink of evolutionary theory!

π§ͺ How does the brain know which way to move?
HFSP-supported research shows that zebrafish brains map sensory signals relative to the bodyβs center, routing them to circuits for forward motion or turning.
A simple rule for complex behavior.

Bees know whatβs good for them πΈ
#HFSP-supported research shows that bees choose flowers based on the nutritional balance of pollen, not just availability. They actively seek a mix of protein and lipids that supports their health. π
