Gericht: Sexuell übergriffiger Professor wird nicht entlassen - er bekommt weniger Geld Ein Professor der Universität Göttingen hat nach Ansicht des Oberverwaltungsgerichts (OVG) Lüneburg seine beamtenrechtliche Pflicht verletzt. Wegen Belästigung wird der Mann für fünf Jahre herabgestuf...

Diese Entscheidung macht wütend. Nicht rechtzeitig abgemahnt? Wusste der Mann nicht, dass er nicht seine Machtposition ausnutzen darf um sexualisierte Gewalt auszuüben? An so vielen Stellen katastrophal. Geschlechtsbezogene Gewalt wird hingenommen, was sonst.

This work shows the first overview on the population genetics and demographic history of the big European firefly, **Lampyris noctiluca**. Feeling very happy this work is out :) academic.oup.com/mbe/article/...

Worker ants increase their reproductive success by caring for their siblings instead of producing their own offspring. An international research team has now uncovered the genetic basis of ant evolution. (Orig. publ. doi.org/10.1016/j.ce...) #ants #phylogenomics #evolution

Big congrats to Dr. @cdegroot.bsky.social for a wonderful PhD defence @lmumuenchen.bsky.social. A big thanks to all collaborators and partner in crime @roriwijnhorst.bsky.social, and @rivers-disguise.bsky.social for producing wonderful artwork. Time to celebrate!

Although more soil related Christian Laforsch is studying microplastics www.bayceer.uni-bayreuth.de/bayceer/de/m..., or Viktor Baranov www.ebd.csic.es/en/about-us/... or Tiana from the Haug Lab at LMU sites.google.com/view/swarmof....

I just know someone studying the effect of soil microplastic on insects, would that be also interesting?

Sogenanntes #RundumSorglos Paket

Es ist ein Schlag ins Gesicht von #IchbinHanna, der man vorgeworfen hat, sie würde Stellen „verstopfen“ oder sich auf ihnen „einkuscheln“, jetzt „Spitzenkräften“ ein - Zitat - „Rundum-Sorglos-Paket“ anbieten zu wollen. Wie anders als einen affront soll man das im Mittelbau denn bitte wahrnehmen?

Was US-Forscher_innen in D dafür bekommen sollen, dass sie ihre Arbeit machen: Rundum-Sorglos-Paket.

Was #IchBinHanna dafür bekommt, dass sie ihre Arbeit macht: Kettenverträge, Arbeitsortwechsel, Pendelei, soziale Entwurzelung, leidende Beziehungen, Rauswurf.

Na wenn uns das mal nicht motiviert! 🤡

Calling all European #Drosophila labs. Time for all of us, that are able, to step up to support FlyBase during this funding crisis.

We currently have a call for support that has gone out to European labs, to support FlyBase-UK. We are asking our colleagues from labs in the US and other countries to wait for a similar call to them that will go out in the near future, to support the US sites. We thank you for your patience.

Drosophila Genetic Database The Drosophila Genetic Database, FlyBase, is on the brink of collapse due to the sudden termination of the FlyBase NIH grant, which includes salaries for 5 literature curators based at the University ...

#drosophila @flybase.bsky.social request emergency funding:
"As it stands, by the end of July, 2025, there will be no future updates to FlyBase, and in the worst case scenario access to the website will also be lost" => please donate!

www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-camb...

FlyBase needs our help.

URGENT: FlyBase has lost practically all its funding overnight; even user fees are tied up in denied grant funding. 🤬🤯

Any lab using @flybase.bsky.social please donate using the link in post below.

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

I really like reading the blog of @clattin.bsky.social . Feeling very honored to be in one of the interviews 😁 That was fun!

We are writing to ask your help in saving FlyBase. We have lost the majority of funding for FlyBase from the US National Institute of Health (NIH), due to the turmoil of current US politics. We had successfully renewed FlyBase grant funding for another 5 years, however the main FlyBase Grant from NIH to Harvard, with its subawards to Indiana University and Cambridge UK, has been terminated at short notice. Furthermore, the user fees that have been so generously provided by Drosophila researchers are tied to the FlyBase grant so we are not permitted to use those either. As it stands, by the end of July, 2025, there will be no future updates to FlyBase, and in the worst case scenario access to the website will also be lost. ... There are two ways you can contribute: Method 1. If you are able to pay with lab funds, we have attached two requests for payments, aimed at smaller and larger labs, which we hope will be acceptable for your finance administrators. If you require a different kind of form, please reply with the details that you need. Similarly, if you wish to pay a different amount we can also adjust it for you. Please use the reference ‘Drosophila Genetic Database’ and add your name and institution to the requests. Method 2. If you want to make a personal donation or if it is easier to pay with a credit card, we have set up the following crowdfunding website: https://www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-cambridge/physiology-development-and-neuroscience/drosophila-genetic-database

Can forward the email I received from the Europe side. They have split two funding campaigns into a US side and a Europe side. Donations must be placed through the Cambridge-linked facility for Europe via lab PO or personal payment via the following page: www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-camb...

A screencapture of the page dedicated to the transcription factor isl1/tailup. There is information about the flybase ID, function, classification, keywords, and a very long wall of text under BIOLOGICAL OVERVIEW. Fly people rock tbh

The Interactive Fly logo, showing a cartoon of two adult Drosophila melanogaster on a yellow background. There's subtext that reads "A cyberspace guide to Drosophila development and metazoan evolution".

Did you know? 🧪 "The Interactive Fly" is a wonderful website hosted by @socdevbio.bsky.social where you can learn about their development, the history of gene discovery/name, and it is full of super useful resources for the #DevBio community 🪰https://www.sdbonline.org/sites/fly/aimain/1aahome.htm
