New paper from the lab, just in time for #Dros23! We show how Yorkie and its new interactor Bonus control cell fate decisions in the fly eye. Here is a link to download (free until April 21):

This was a great collaboration with Ken Moberg's lab. Our work highlights functions of the #Hippo pathway that are not related to growth control. All of the experiments were done by inimitable Heya Zhao @HeyaZhao

WOOOO! Congrats to my friend @DrGlam who's being honored right now at #Dros23 for a *lifetime* of service to the Drosophila community!

On my way to #DROS23

On my way to #Dros23 in Chicago. Looking forward to stimulating talks, posters and discussions!

On this eve of #Dros23 I am excited to share that we will have three unpublished stories presented: 1. Poster # 343 F by grad student Navya presenting a new fly model for #postmitotic regeneration 2. Talk # 44 by postdoc Deena presenting our most recent work on #polyploidy in the fly brain and 3. Talk # 79 by research scientist Liz presenting new work examining the interplay of cell cycle exit and #terminaldifferentiation. Come see our new work using our favorite model organism #drosophila

Going to GSA (Genetics Society of America) #Dros23? Stop by the Leica Booth 601 to check out our stereomicroscopes! Our friendly Chicago team will be there to chat with you about Leica imaging solutions.

Today #Dros23 starts with the #CRISPR workshop. Join us at 10 am (CT) for the latest in modifying the bestgenome™️.

Whose ready for the fly meetings? Plan to stob by and see us at the upcoming #Drosophila meeting in Chicago! #Dros23
