Art work of Drosophila melanogaster in the center of blue circle. The circle has words that say "Outstanding Community Service".
Many congratulations to all of our Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center colleagues @flystocks at Indiana University @IUBloomington recognized for their outstanding community service at #TAGC24 #Dros24 @GeneticsGSA.
Cellular organisation of the fly’s kidney Detail of an adult Drosophila Malpighian (renal) tubule expressing membrane-bound GFP (green) in stellate cells – a population secondary intercalated cells required for transport of water – under the direction of c724GAL4, with staining of nuclei (DAPI, blue) and F-actin microfilaments (TRITC-conjugated phalloidin, magenta) in principal cells and stellate cells. Septate junctions are stained using an antibody for the junctional component Discs-large (anti-Dlg1, grey). The image was created by tiling of three separate maximum-intensity z projections obtained using a Nikon AX R NSPARC confocal.
Beyond honoured that my image of a Malpighian (renal) tubule has won the Genetic Society of America’s Drosophila Image Award 2024 at #TAGC24 #Dros24. Especially as the award is based not just on aesthetics but the science it represents doi.org/10.1242/jcs.....
