it's the #cshlfly22 reunion at #sfn22! we missed everyone who wasn't able to attend! @CSHLflycourse forever!

these were all very easy things to do, did not disrupt the flow of the course, and are what ultimately, i feel, kept us safe. every single member of #cshlfly22 was integral to this and for my part, i can't thank them enough for their responsibility and cooperation.

this is very special to me. so now i can see it every day. thank you @CSHLflycourse and each member of #cshlfly22 for an unforgettable experience.

i miss everyone from #cshlfly22 something fierce right now ... but dear fsm, sleeping in my own bed after a month away is absolutely otherworldly right now.

and that's a wrap on @CSHLflycourse #cshlfly22! the lab is turned over and 2023 awaits. words can't express the kind of experience this has been ...

and one last @CSHLflycourse courtyard dance party ... #cshlfly22

but before we leave these hallowed halls ... one last @CSHLflycourse lobster banquet!! #cshlfly22

#cshlfly22

and finally! the last jewel in our @cshlflycourse crown, @braedyn_au takes a newfound interest in larval crawling and measures the parameters of extension and peristaltic waves. fascinating use of PCA to understand larval motion. #cshlfly22

how do we adapt motor control? @VLobatoRios explores how different manipulations of fly structure influences how they move. new recording and 3D printing avenues from @CSHLflycourse! flies can lose limbs and still move with intriguing stability changes. #cshlfly22

the best way to go! @ricciuti_ana explores a completely new avenue to her for @CSHLflycourse because she found it interesting! studying how to make a memory stronger. with bonus @DuarteLautaro, @bellabeckett214, and lydia demonstrating proboscis extension! #cshlfly22

with a keen interest in sensory behavior and mating decisions, @bellabeckett214 combines connectomics, PiVR, tracking, and mating decisions with a great @CSHLflycourse capstone! #cshlfly22

right then, folks! @IainFlyHunter talks about a fascinating side project inspired at @CSHLflycourse involving characterizing proprioception withbthe chordotonal neurons using physiology techniques and patch! with some data from a very tough prep! #cshlfly22

and now! @StaceySlavutsky uses the staining and dissection skills from @CSHLflycourse to apply to neuronal crush injury assays in larvae. a fantastic tour through synapses and axons in response to injury! #cshlfly22

taking @CSHLflycourse on a neural development journey, @NoorAlHajri1 practices her newly gained dissection skills to look at embryonic neurons during axon guidance and in larvae! what lovely staining! #cshlfly22

back to neural stem cells! @sarahboothman_ takes us back to how to form a nervous system. presenting us gorgeous images of neuroblast division in the larval cns, expanding beyond @CSHLflycourse embryo analysis. so beautiful! #cshlfly22 and with a special shout to @GAL4science !

continuing on the @CSHLflycourse PER assay exploration, @RattleCall attempts to break us of our fear of rabbits and love of cookies ... but shows that we can get moderate aversion to NaCl that can be remembered! #cshlfly22

bringing olfactory PER assays into the mix, @DuarteLautaro discusses learning, association, and the greatest central circuit in flies, olfaction! combining ingenuity in building things, olfaction, and the PER, multiple @CSHLflycourse skills! #cshlfly22

our physics faculty from UNESP in brazil, marina piacenti silva, next tackles the toxicity of metals in flies for her @CSHLflycourse capstone and introduces us to her lab and brazil! to boot, she finds changes in development after cd exposure. #cshlfly22

IMPORTANT! @TariqMHSBrown reveals the results of his personality test at @CSHLflycourse #cshlfly22!

continuing the adventure, @TariqMHSBrown talks about ethanol dependence and memory and trying a heroic experiment to patch from these neurons! he's now got the skills to make it happen back home. #cshlfly22

next up ... lydia borjon examines the olfactory induced behavior of larvae to appetitive odors and wasps! looks like she got a response! #cshlfly22 @CSHLflycourse

kicking it off! the @cshlflycourse capstone afternoon begins with @emhendricks2 talking about her project on tetraspanins in axon guidance! #cshlfly22

the afternoon begins!! @CSHLflycourse first honors @elliehoopla and @CAndrewFrank who are finishing their 3 year tenure as course directors! we wouldn't be where we are without them (and this continuing course director is eternally thankful for them!). #cshlfly22

presentations are being prepared, the data is collected and being analyzed, and this afternoon, the fruits of all the @CSHLflycourse labors will be revealed in the capstones!! #cshlfly22

it's pack up morning here at @CSHLflycourse. 😔 sad to go ... but we're not done yet! #cshlfly22

but there's always time to step away and watch the sunset with your classmates ... #cshlfly22

welcoming damon clark to the @CSHLflycourse! @braedyn_au gives him a wonderful intro ahead of his blockbuster talk on the biology of visual computations. #cshlfly22

our final lecture is tonight! @elliehoopla introduces the @CSHLflycourse featherstone lecture, named in honor of our dear departed colleagues, david featherstone. #cshlfly22

"i want to sing their praises every chance i get." @calewhitworth reminds us that the heart of @flystocks are the people who give so much of their time and their heart to keep our community going. #cshlfly22
