New paper from my research group, published in @J_Therm_Biol..Using precise individual rearing and controlled temperature transitions, we show how thermal shifts at developmental transitions affect development time and body size in #Drosophila

@faraz9994 @joshiamitabhevo @NGPrasadevo @SutirthDey @bodhi Uncontrolled cell division is hallmark of cancer. Organisms that have short lifespan and hence limited cell division cycles until they die are less likely to have their cell division machinery go awry and develop cancer. Thus cancer is less prevalent in flies than mice or humans.

[Shampa M. Ghosh @shampaevolution]

@faraz9994 @joshiamitabhevo @NGPrasadevo @SutirthDey @bodhi FEJs have evolved shorter lifespan as mentioned. And in general cancer is less common in Drosophila because flies have very short lifespan that requires less number of cell divisions during their lifetime and possibly less chances of losing control of that process.
