Say good morning to our new medicine laureate Svante Pääbo! Pääbo received the news while enjoying a cup of coffee. After the shock wore off, one of the first things he wondered was if he could share the news with his wife, Linda. Photo: Linda Vigilant

Feeling like taking a nap during 🌞the heat? A need for 😴midday siesta appears to be hardwired in the brain. A new study from @technoshaman_ @GallioLab reveals a temperature-sensitive circuit promoting #sleep in hot conditions. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

There is a new paper out today from the Caron lab in our absolute favorite journal:💫Current Biology❤️‍🔥. And a🧶 for you, busy people out here in the Tweetosphere. cell.com/current-biology/ful…

Mushroom body input connections form independently of sensory activity in Drosophila melanogaster

The connectivity architecture of higher brain centers can be regulated by genetic and activity-dependent mechanisms. Hayashi et al. test whether sensory activity is required to connect the Kenyon...

Do you want to replicate a complete high-precision behavioral experiment with walking Drosophila at ~1% of the cost? Not a problem, you have come to the right place: doi.org/10.1101/2021.04.29.4…

Fruit flies may provide a model for better self-driving vehicles. As part of this new study led by @GallioLab, researchers also developed a simulation "game" that anyone can play to see the flies at work. spr.ly/6011HIUVX

Understanding fruit fly behavior may be next step toward autonomous vehicles

Could the way drosophila use antennae to sense heat help us teach self-driving cars make decisions?

I lost my Dad to prostate cancer in 2018. He loved everything about bicycles-So I am pedaling 500 miles from NYC to Niagara Falls to raise money for cancer research. Any amount you can donate to help end cancer would be greatly appreciated! give.roswellpark.org/site/TR…

Not only does @GallioLab make the best Italian food (I learned how to cook Risotto from this master decades ago) he also does hot science and hotter covers! And... he also is the only PI who puts together a 1/2

Our new paper is finally out🥂🕺💃! We study how flies escape heat and compare their behavior to that of simple "Braitenberg Vehicles" scaled down to fly-size

Cats love it but mozzies don’t. Scientists show why catnip works and is so powerful, supporting its use as a natural, safe, cheap insect repellent. #mosquitoes #malaria #dengue-fever cosmosmagazine.com/nature/pl… #science via @CosmosMagazine @GallioLab @MarcusStensmyr
