Late post- Had an amazing time at #EDRC2025 in Alicante!
I presented my poster on my PhD project and had so many valuable chats with fellow fly people.
Feeling inspired and grateful for this community. 🪰💛

Great to participate at #EDRC2025, which gathered together an impressive 750 researchers from 40 countries! 🌍🪰🔬 With strong representation from the #LMS by Nsikan, Miriam & Isabel ⭐

It was great to participate in this year’s #EDRC2025 and meet so many friends, discuss our projects and listen to so much great science! Looking forward to #EDRC2027 in Bonn!

We are back from #EDRC2025 and very thankful to all our #DrosoSpain colleagues for the fantastic organization. It was great to see you all and we are looking forward to seeing you all in next year’s #DrosoSpain2026 . Stay tuned for a “savethedate” very soon!

great visit to Le Génopode, University of Lausanne! double thanks to jean-yves roignant for inviting me here as well as to #EDRC2025 to discuss RNAmods, miRNAs, and 🪰!

So nice to see everyone and meet many new faces at #EDRC2025! Possibly new collaborators, great sponsors, and it is so good to see the community holding strong. 🪰

I am sure next time will be a Bonn voyage! 😉

Had a fab time at #EDRC2025 in Alicante. Great science, great people, long live the fly!

And so fabulous to dine out with former postdocs Anne Classen @classenlab.bsky.social, Thomas Vaccari @vaccarilab.bsky.social and Lucy O’Brien. Many laughs, fond memories, and talk of bright futures for all of them. #EDRC2025

Honored to share stage with all the great plenary speakers at #EDRC2025. Exciting science and great vibes from Drosophila researchers worldwide – Let’s keep the American, Euro, and APAC communities coordinated and strong!

The main conference room of the EDRC meeting with a packed audience.

Energetic poster session!

I'm flying back home after 4 days of fantastic science at the #EDRC2025
It was delightful to hear about all the new work, meeting old and new friends. I'm feeling energized to get back to my CO2 pad.
Long live the Drosophila community!

We are very happy to have participated in #EDRC2025 Thank you for all the great #Drosophila #science and looking forward to #EDRC2027

Thank you to all #EDRC2025 participants and a big applause to the organizing committee for this great #Drosophila meeting! See you all in Bonn for #EDRC2027

#EDRC2025

The @geneticsub.bsky.social section, was well represented at #EDRC2025 @edrc2025.bsky.social by Nadia and Marco @mariottilab.bsky.social Sofia @sofiajaraujo.bsky.social and Núria @nuriacorbella.bsky.social @araujolabub.bsky.social and Ivan from the Serras’ lab who presented their results

That’s a wrap! We are done with #EDRC2025 and we look forward to seeing everyone again in 2027 for #EDRC2027 in Bonn!

Thanks to the organisers and all attendants for this great meeting #EDRC2025 . See you in Bonn! #drosophila #edrc2027

And, that's a wrap! The #PopGen and #Evolution session at #EDRC2025 just ended. Great talks from Divyansh Mittal from @bentonlab.bsky.social, Virginie Curtier-Orgogozo, Paco Majic @hhydrochaerus.bsky.social, and Alexandra Ozerova. A pleasure to co-chair the session with Thomas Flatt!

Super proud of my PhD student, Ujjayita for a splendid talk in the disease models session at @edrc2025.bsky.social conference in Alicante, Spain. Confident, balanced and well defended! Loved the scientific content of the conference & had a great time! #EDRC2025 #Drosophila

At #EDRC2025 we have had two great póster sessions with plenty of #Drosophila science discussions, cheese, wine and jamón!

Over grateful to have been part of this wonderful mito session at #EDRC2025. Lovely discussion panel afterwards. Big thanks to the organisers Tiina, Laura and Yuliya, as well as the other presenters. 🪰🧬🦠

FlyBase will present posters 333 'Modeling the Mitochondrion: Building an Integrated Causal Model for Mitochondrial Processes using the Gene Ontology' and 335 'Building high-quality Genome-Scale Metabolic Models for Drosophila using the Gene Ontology' today at #EDRC2025

The European Drosophila Research Conference will go to Hungary in 2029! #EDRC2025

#edrc2025 European #drosophila Society meeting announces the 2029 meeting location : see you all in Szeged (and Bonn in 2027 of course)!

The 2025 General Assembly is now on at #EDRC2025

We are on day 3 of #EDRC2025 continuing with excellent #Drosophila science
