Sad I missed it this year! Fantastic that @claraphan.bsky.social was awarded a prize for her talk! Thanks DIF!
Clara S. Phan@claraphan.bsky.social · 4w agoIt is always a pleasure to attend the DIF meetings for the quality of the science and the supportive community, so I was especially grateful for the opportunity to present this year. Many thanks to the organisers, the French Society of Genetics and, of course, @bardinlab.bsky.social for the support.

Happily, our fly stock room has been restored to 18°C and the labs are now a chilly 30°C. We will see how the hot week ahead progresses.
Bardin Lab@bardinlab.bsky.social · 2mo agoHow HOT is TOO HOT to work in lab? 33°C? 35°C? 37°C? Our aircon in the BDD @institutcurie.bsky.social , which hasn't worked well for years, is now dead. This is our "18°C" room for important fly stocks (now at 29°C!). It is 33°C in the labs today, and will only increase over the next 6 days!

PLOS Biology@plosbiology.org · 2mo ago#CrohnsDisease is associated with NOD2 mutations, but what's NOD2's role in the #intestine? Mckenna Eklund & @edanfoley.bsky.social show that #NOD2 interacts with #estrogen to regulate intestinal homeostasis, perhaps explaining the sex-specific pathogenesis of CD @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4ojTEuZ
Congratulations to both of you!
