Peroxisomes continued - this time by @darladr.bsky.social, absolutely brilliant PhD student in my lab. Darla and @kucharowski.bsky.social are masters in pupal brain imaging, which allows us to investigate organelle dynamics in neurons of the remodeling fly brain. #ProudPI #peroxisomes

From June 23 to June 29, 2025, Freie Universität Berlin will be cutting out the letter e from its communication. Why? Because the university itself is facing cuts: around 37 million euros this year alone. Additional cuts are also planned for 2026 and 2027. (1/3)
That's how its done! Sure, we love to tease each other, but at the end of the day we're all on team science. You rock indeed @zebrafishrock.bsky.social
If you have the means, please help this vital resource. Any contribution will help sustain @flybase.bsky.social during this difficult time. Thanks for your consideration 🙏 #ThatsHowWeShoal 🔗 to donate: www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-camb...

URGENT: FlyBase has lost practically all its funding overnight; even user fees are tied up in denied grant funding. 🤬🤯 Any lab using @flybase.bsky.social please donate using the link in post below. This incredible community, on whose backs our #Drosophila labs depend, can't be left out to dry.
Thrilled by the peroxisome–Golgi interaction in dilp secretion, and honoured to have contributed to this work 😊
I am very excited to share our latest preprint on peroxisome-Golgi interaction in dilp secretion. Great work by lab members @kucharowski.bsky.social, the incredible Marie, @darladr.bsky.social, @buelowt.bsky.social and fantastic collaboration with @jan-ache.bsky.social-Lab and Kuerschner-lab
