How do intestinal stem cells in Drosophila detect and repair basement membrane damage? A new study in @Dev_Cell by @aubrie_stricker, @PageMcCawLab, and @VanderbiltCDB sheds insight on tissue integrity and repair! doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.202…

If anyone saw my talk at #Dros23 and were curious about the next chapter in the Mthl10 story, this is it. Incredible work from stellar @VanderbiltU undergrad and incoming @PennMedicine medical student, Ivy Han!
Who would have thought epithelial cells set cortical tension using information from a cell surface receptor? See our bioRxiv preprint for details - biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

So proud of my most recent graduate, @JamesOConnorPhD, for winning the international 2023 Sandler Award for the best dissertation using Drosophila. It was a joy to work with you, profoundly moving to see you soar now - Andrea #Dros23 @VanderbiltCDB @VUBasicSciences

James' "jump-the-gap" movie: Epithelial wounds release a signal that triggers calcium (green) in surrounding cells. The pink cells are deaf to the signal (Gq knockdown) but the outside cells can still hear it. @Dev_Cell @JamesOConnorPhD @mShaneHutson

Congrats to this year’s Larry Sandler award winner and all the finalists. New goal: a lab logo that is as cool as that of the Page-McCaw lab (congrats to the proud mentor as well) #dros23

Anyone know a fly lab who bought a kettle and mixer to make fly food (rather than use the one that’s been around since the time of Morgan?) I’m looking for model numbers. #Drosophila

.@IndrayaniWaghm1 and @PageMcCawLab @VanderbiltCDB highlight work from Hu, @FangIowa et al. (bit.ly/3Hiw4sV) that describes a mechanism by which convergence and extension of the mesoderm and endoderm is regulated non–cell-autonomously. bit.ly/3cfzhuQ

This is so important. Model organism peeps, read, RT, advocate, make yourself heard. I mean where would we be without our databases????
GSA President Hugo Bellen and VP @Worm_Diva are among the co-authors of a recent Perspectives article in @Dev_journal titled “Model organism databases are in jeopardy.” See how you can help support these vital resources on the blog: bit.ly/2WnWirb

Without NIH support ALL model organism databases-a crucial component of biomedical research-are threatened. Make your voice heard: surveymonkey.com/r/5NGLNNJ. Background info @ASCBiology @GeneticsGSA :ascb.org/wp-content/uploads/…

A new illustration to understand it all! A pleasure to illustrate the last work of @PageMcCawLab in how epithelia response to wounds. With @stramerlab and @Yutaka_Mts, we prepared a @Dev_Cell preview to introduce this beautiful paper, check it out! cell.com/developmental-cell/…
