Starting a new trend on Twitter.

"What techniques have you tweaked in your lab which have made your fly life easier?"

Examples: a better way to clone, a new vector, a faster way to make media?

It's a final good bye from all of us at APDRC5!
May the flies be with you!

And that's a wrap on APDRC5! So many wonderful people, such amazing science!
See you at Singapore!

Thanks to those who voted for flies and fish to make it look like a real poll.

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

The poll results are out! Turns out Drosophila is the best model organism ever!

-With no vested interests,

Sincerely,
All Drosophila researchers attending APDRC5.

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

That's all for today!
Over dinner let's have a poll!

Which is the best model organism ever?

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

The organizers closing a hugely successful meeting!

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

The next APDRC announced!!

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

The poster awards! Many congratulations!

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

The closing session! So grateful to everyone for making this happen!

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

Why do we sleep? Dr. Michael Rosbash @BrandeisU, shares with us the extensive work done on circadian rhythm. We now know that clock neurons are phenotypically and molecularly diverse!

How time flies, when you're part of an amazing conference like #apdrc5! @IISERPune #drosophila

Dr. Anuradha Ratnaparkhi's work highlights the role of Mon1 in octopaminergic neurons, regulating oogenesis. Insulin signaling is also critical for this process. @ari_pune

Thank you, Dr. Sudip Mandal for showing us mesmerizing videos of the Drosophila heart!
Great work shedding more light on the gut microbiome- pericardial cell- fat body axis. #apdrc5

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

Eisuke Imura tells us how the corazonin/PTTH axis affects pupal size by regulating ecdysosteroid production. #apdrc5

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

@RVaisaly talks about the role of extended synaptotagmins in localization of RDGB protein, regulating ER-PM contact sites. @NCBS_Bangalore @RPadinjat #apdrc5

Dr. Utpal Banerjee focuses on the intermediate zone (IZ) in the Drosophila lymph gland.
This unique region exhibits differential signaling ability, perhaps hinting at its function. #apdrc5

[APDRC5 @apdrc5]

Thank you, Dr. Ginés Morata for a wonderful talk on cell competition!
This phenomenon, dependent on JNK activity, eliminates unfit/tumor cells to maintain tissue health. But this can also be detrimental at times, causing tumor proliferation. #apdrc5 #drosophila
