After every scientific meeting, I spend a half day typing out, finding paper links, and commenting on my handwritten notes. It's not the most fun, but it helps me consolidate and retain information. Then I send nice emails to my favor presenters, which is more fun! #CSHLDros 🧪

It was an honor to talk at #CSHLDROS and meet so many brilliant colleagues @cshlnews.bsky.social

Five people stand on the grass in front of a sunset. They somehow are all in shades of blue. They also are all in the Barber lab.

Barber Lab representing at #CSHLDros! 🪰 4/5 of us have posters tonight.

The twenty-first biennial Neurobiology of Drosophila meeting started last night! We are excited to host everyone this week, use #cshldros for all of your posts!

A cartoon from smbc captioned “the life of a scientist sounds way more fun if you describe it like you’re a 6 year old.” The scientist in the cartoon is wearing glasses and a teal polo. Their speech bubble says “I like flies and me and my friends look at flies all the time and sometimes the flies are neat and we tell our other friends about it and our friends also like flies and sometimes we have fly parties and so no we know a lot about flies.” The original cartoon said rocks, Annika photoshopped in flies.

It’s time for the fly party with my fly friends! #CSHLDros

Conference week at CSHL on the Neurobiology of Drosophila. Come hear my talk on how a deterministic visual system is generated from stochastic processes. #cshldros

A wooden embroidery hoop with cream colored Aida lies on a wooden surface. At left a spectrum of thread skeins in green, yellow and brown. On top of the unstitched fabric is a bitty pair of TSA-permissible scissors.

Heading to #CSHLDros this week, which means it’s time to get an embroidery project cued up to keep my hands busy while I listen!

some of you got a preview of this miRNA hearing story at #Dros23 or #cshlDros. thanks to Genes Dev and referees for appreciating our study. post-transcriptional regulation is essential for hearing, and miRNAs can unveil new critical regulators of this process! 🪰🦻5/5

my bad! poster 96 is given by iryna mohylyak from the @bassemh1 lab and not the potter lab!! #cshldros
so sorry!
(and @justinblau01, tweeting from the corner of 8th and callowhill!)

and finishing up the 2021 cshl neurobiology of drosophila meeting ... the final tempting and enticing flash talks from jasper phelps from the lee lab, @flyknows, and yerbol kurmangaliyev from the zipursky lab. #cshldros

and the last full talk of the meeting goes to dr. lisa marin from the jefferis group about developmental units in the adult nerve cord. #cshldros

suresh jetti is up next from the @JTroyLittleton lab on synaptic diversity in tonic and phasic motoneurons. #cshldros

larval motor neurons and single cell sequencing! rosario vicidomini from the serpe lab shows us how its done. #cshldros

back from the break! sven dorkenwald from the @MurthyLab and the @SebastianSeung lab at princeton talks about flywire and mapping whole brain connectomics! #cshldros

work from qijing xie is up next about transcription factors and cell surface proteins. #cshldros

coming in hot ... neset ozel from the desplan lab talks about neuronal differentiation and wiring specificity using transcription factor codes. #cshldros

and continuing on! colin merrill from utah will talk about atac-seq targeting of specific neuron types using iterative assays. #cshldros

our next speaker is @CSHLflycourse alum joana dopp @joanadopp who will regale us with tales of sleeping flies at single cell resolution! #cshldros

kicking off the final session is dahong chen from the nih to discuss the temporal regulation of neuronal remodeling by chromatin factors. #cshldros

our final session at #cshldros is the first ever "neur-omics" session. chaired by amanda crocker!

what great news! @RodalLab and @CAndrewFrank will be chairing the 2023 neurobiology of drosophila meeting! #cshldros huge thanks to jill wildonger and adrian rothenfluh who expertly steered the ship this year!!

it's an afternoon of celebration in the mosca lab for @GAL4science's excellent talk and @sonofasmurf's excellent postering #cshldros. we *may* have had shots. we definitely had chicken sandwiches. and double thanks to @2LexA4myshirt for coordinating our sandwich endeavours.

my all time favorite PO, daniel miller, is providing the development lecture this afternoon at #cshldros!

last up for this amazing session - flash talks from sarah leinwand, @CAndrewFrank, and @wang_yupu enticing you with just enough data to get you to ask them every question you can think of at their posters! #cshldros

the @MoscaLab is watching attentively as our colleague @GAL4science presents her science at #cshldros !!

next up ... and this is the excitement here ... alison depew (@GAL4science and MY STUDENT!!!!!) on the myriad of functions of the cell surface protein lrp4 in synaptic development!!! be prepared to be amazed!!! #cshldros

next up is jennifer malin from the @ClaudeDesplan lab focusing on regulation of neuron number in the visual system! #cshldros

generating larval motor patterns requires particular synaptic organization! work from kazushi fukumasu from the nose lab. #cshldros

first up after the break is suchetana dutta from the @bassemh1 and hiesinger labs talking about wiring specificity and synaptic stabilization! #cshldros

let's get into memory traces! moto yoshihara from niict will talk about a synaptic memory trace formed in a command neuron in conditioning. #cshldros
