Hear ye hear ye πŸ”” Come see the cool things Wolbachia does. New work from my lab (known at lab meetings as Amelia’s weird side project) with contributions from my grad student Megan Jones and our friends from @chicaScientifica and Tennessen labs at IU.

TLDR; having Wolbachia helps you grow big and strong

It’s that time of year. I’m picking papers for grad-level insect physiology journal club. If you’ve published/read something good lately β€” send it my way! Students get 2-3 papers to select from for each topic. I especially love pubs that cover multiple systems and highlight fun experimental approaches.
