Summary 🧵 below.
Great news! The next JEDI #Drosophila conference is now officially @embo.org funded! We are more than grateful for the support!
🚨 The deadline has been extended until January 31st!🚨
New preprint from the @wittbrodtlab.bsky.social. The group developed an "infinity pool" setup to test visual acuity and swimming behavior in medaka.

Yay! 🎉
Pseudotime trajectory created with Monocle3 of WT and tumor follicle cells labeled by pseudotime.
Here is a tiny glimpse into our recent work: a #pseudotime analysis of wildtype and tumorigenic #Drosophila follicle epithelial cells using #Monocle3. Seeing a bioinformatic prediction that supports our in vivo findings is always my favorite part of the day!
Join us to study developmental cell biology with a focus on cell migration and morphogenesis.

Really good 🎉🎉🎉
Super proud to be part of SFB1348 — and excited to share that I now officially have my own lab in Münster! 🎉🪰
We’ll study #cellbio & #morphogenesis, focusing on organ sculpting and #chirality in #Drosophila.
I’ll soon hire my first #PhD student — feel free to reach out!

Figure from the preprint showing sensory neuron morphology with different levels of Cas9 expression.
High levels of Cas9 are toxic in sensory neurons. Reducing Cas9 levels with uORFs avoids toxicity and is compatible with efficient editing. From @thompsonpeerlab.bsky.social. Fly lines @vdrc-flies.bsky.social

FlyBase Update – October 2025 The termination of the NIH/NHGRI FlyBase grant has placed the long-term sustainability of FlyBase at risk. However, thanks to the generous support of several key individuals and institutions, we are pleased to announce that FlyBase will remain operational through the coming year. We extend our deepest gratitude to Yukiko Yamashita, Cassandra Extavour, Hugo Bellen, Thom Kaufman, the Genetics Society of America / Drosophila Board, the Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center, an anonymous donor and the Wellcome Trust. We are especially thankful for a generous gift from Seemay Chou, Jed McCaleb, and The Navigation Fund. We also greatly appreciate the continued support from the broader Drosophila community – your donations and service fees have been vital in helping us stay afloat. Special thanks also go to Jessica Manning for her tireless administrative work at Harvard, to Ruth Lehmann, Hugo Bellen, and Paul Sternberg for advice and efforts, and to the Board of the European Drosophila Society for all their efforts. Sadly, we must also share that several long-standing FlyBase team members have recently moved on. We are immensely grateful to Susan Russo-Gelbart, Lynn Crosby, Gil dos Santos, Kris Broll, Victoria Jenkins, and TyAnna Lovato for their many years of dedicated service and contributions to FlyBase. Looking ahead, ensuring FlyBase’s sustainability beyond the next year – and successfully integrating with the Alliance – will require new funding sources. We kindly ask for your continued support: • European labs: Please consider contributing to the Cambridge, U.K. FlyBase group • U.S. and other non-European labs: Please consider contributing to the U.S. FlyBase groups • Both U.K. and U.S. FlyBase are working diligently to establish an invoicing system. We appreciate your continued patience. For more information on how to support us, please visit: Contribute to FlyBase wiki page https://wiki.flybase.org/wiki/FlyBase:Contribute_to_FlyBase
There's an update on the state of FlyBase on the FlyBase.org front page. You can contribute to FlyBase at this link wiki.flybase.org/wiki/FlyBase...
We express enormous gratitude to the people, labs, groups, and foundations who have already helped us.

The #EDS has the pleasure to announce that, after #EDRC2027 in Bonn, we will have #EDRC2029 in Szeged! Don’t forget these hashtags!
That’s a wrap! We are done with #EDRC2025 and we look forward to seeing everyone again in 2027 for #EDRC2027 in Bonn!
3, 2, 1 and we are on!!! #EDRC2025 is starting! Welcome to our more than 740 participants from more than 40 countries! Thank you to all our sponsors!
#edrc2025 European #drosophila Society meeting announces the 2029 meeting location : see you all in Szeged (and Bonn in 2027 of course)!
Its so that we met at the airport
Katrin Domsch and Katja Rust at the EDRC meeting at Alicante.
Met a new friend at the #EDRC meeting today who is also a @fly-jedi.bsky.social!
