𧬠Does anyone know if the new amplifier sequences for HCR⒠Gold RNA-FISH are available anywhere? Trying to track them down to plug into the code I have to generate probes in place of the old B1/B2... sequences.

URGENT: FlyBase has lost practically all its funding overnight; even user fees are tied up in denied grant funding. π€¬π€―

This incredible community, on whose backs our #Drosophila labs depend, can't be left out to dry.

I had a great time talking about Galleria mellonella at Pint of Science, Exeter last night.
Turns out, The Very Hungry Caterpillar saw it comingβ¦ πβ¨

New pre print! We establish an ex vivo blood vessel model to investigate the effect of infection on vascular physiology in real time. We show Klebsiella inhibits vasodilation in a T6SS-dependent manner by targeting eNOs. Superb work by @safimicro.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

π£ I have a non-model #Drosophila system ripe for collaboration - it's got a balancer chromosome, so GAL4/UAS becomes feasible. #EvolBio questions with functional genetics! Happy to chat.
Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more
