FlyBase secures funding for year, but future still uncertain The FlyBase team’s fundraising efforts have proven successful in the short term, but restoration of its federal grant remains uncertain.

🪰 folks! I spoke to the Transmitter about FlyBase. As noted at flybase.org, bridge $ ran out and many staff were laid off.

Good news is stopgap contributions will keep core FlyBase operations active. But community support remains essential. Please donate @FlyBase and share! 1/2

DNA methylation is one of the most studied epigenetic modification associated with regulation of gene expression. Bisulfite-converted genomic DNA sequencing has been the current gold standard in the field for building genome-wide DNAm maps at base pair resolution.

How do RNA molecules shape genome regulation in the nervous system? (AKAY_U26CASE) | Doctoral Training Partnership This PhD project will investigate how RNA modifications influence the activity of topoisomerase I (TOP1), a crucial enzyme that regulates DNA supercoiling during replication and transcription. Using C...

Harvard University lays off fly database team The layoffs jeopardize this resource, which has served more than 4,000 labs for about three decades.

FlyBase, a Drosophila database, will lose a third of its team in early October because the Harvard grant that covered the employees’ salaries was canceled. Scientists warn that losing FlyBase could devastate fly research.

Can anyone recommend a service where I upload 3D models of simple machine parts and they mail me the CNC'ed results? Something like Osh Park that does small batches but for machine parts?

I feel like I saw something about this recently but can't remember which platform I saw it on.

Diesen 40seitigen Bericht zu lesen, lohnt sich. Albanese legt eindrucksvoll dar, wie lukrativ die Besatzung und der Genozid für direkt oder indirekt beteiligte Unternehmen sind und wie auch andere Staaten dadurch an diesem Völkermord mitverdienen.
