Fantastic talk by @wormslearn that highlights how complex something as simple as habituation/sensitization actually is. Also a lovely reminder of how high maintenance fruit flies are 😂🪰🪰

Thrilled to get started on this work with the fantastic undergraduates @BryantUniv @BryantUHealth!! Thanks to the @NIAAAnews for recognizing the importance of our research and invaluable support from @RIINBRE in getting our research program off the ground.
Congrats to @KristinScaplen on the funding of her @NIH grant. This $414,000 award will support her work "Neural Circuitry Mechanisms Underlying Maladaptive Reward Memories in Drosophila"-aka what drives addiction in the brain. @BryantUniv first independent NIH grant=history made!

Ever wonder if your favorite protein is clustered? Excited to introduce a new reporter strategy called CluMPS that answers this question by amplifying small protein clusters, even endogenous ones. New preprint led by @confocalTom 1/n https://t.co/32PqeOMQXW

Thanks so much for having me! It was a pleasure to speak with you and highlight how the fruit fly can contribute to our understanding of complex diseases like addiction.
“As flies become intoxicated they actually behave very similarly to humans.” Kristin Scaplen, Assistant Professor at @BryantUniv, dives into groundbreaking research on the neural circuits of fruit flies on the latest #AddictionTalk. 🍇🔬🦟 https://t.co/LN4BiKisxW
