A “fun” twist this time is that both Patrick and I were attending from #dros26 in Chicago…though we still haven’t run into each other in person.

Hi #DROS26 folks! I am hanging out in the Lincoln Boardroom (level 3 across from Fedex) until at least 5 pm and am happy to chat professional development; career exploration, and mentorship! Come join me if you'd like 🪰

Hey #DROS26 attendees, want to connect while exploring Chicago? Meet in the lobby by check-in for a 30-minute walk from 7:45 a.m. on Thursday and Friday morning! If the weather holds up, we'll visit Millennium Park tomorrow, and the riverwalk Friday. If it rains, we'll hang out in the lobby!

Last week I attended #Dros26 and had a wonderful time. I saw so many creative approaches to uncover new Drosophila biology throughout the talks and poster sessions. Top-tier science!
Thank you @genetics-gsa.bsky.social for making my attendance possible by awarding me the DeLill Nasser Award!

#dros26 are you looking for a postdoc position and want to live in Paris?! Check out the opportunity below from @cecilecourret.bsky.social who has an exciting project on the Paris drive system in D. simulans 🤩
🔬 Recruiting a Postdoc!!!!
I’m looking for a motivated postdoc to join my lab and work on characterizing the role of a heterochromatin protein involved in a sex-ratio meiotic drive system in Drosophila.
If you know someone who might be interested, please share widely!

So good to see familiar faces at #dros26 😊 Ching-Ho @ching-hochang.bsky.social just opened his lab in Taiwan and Rebecca @tarnopol.bsky.social is opening her lab at UCSF this summer—can’t wait to see what their labs do next!!! 🙌

What happens if the germline goes on without (most of the) piRNAs for 45 generations?

Wanted to advertise the presentations from my lab occurring at #Dros26! It’s my first time getting to bring my trainees and can’t wait for them to share their work.

Heading to the Fly Meeting #DROS26 tomorrow.
I just counted the abstract books & receipts & notes and this will be my 30th Fly Meeting & my 6th in Chicago.
No, I don't want to eat at Carmine's fancy restaurant--but I could do the Italian beef sandwich.

What a wonderful meeting it was - super proud of the fly community for staying strong in these difficult times. #dros26 #drosophila
🪰 #Dros26 has come and gone—and what a week it was. From a guitar-fueled opening to buzzing poster sessions, researchers shared advances in fly biology, behavior, and beyond. Thanks to all who joined us for another incredible year!

This is an incredible opportunity. The Fernandez lab has an amazing work environment and Maria is a lovely mentor. Also, you get to be neighbors with us (Tennessen Lab) - we are right next door. Come and be in our neighboring lab !

Science is not just data, its community! my last activity as Drosophila Board President was to write a theme song for our fly field. it was soooo awesome to rock it with @tarafinegan.bsky.social and ~1000 fly fanciers at #Dros26! 🪰
