Lead the next discovery at the LMB. We’re recruiting Group Leaders to join our Structural Studies and @cellbiol-mrclmb.bsky.social Divisions. Benefit from long-term support, access to outstanding core-facilities and a collaborative environment where science thrives. ➡️ mrclmb.ac.uk/research-lea...

Our Dept. of Genetics and Developmental Biology at the Institut Curie in the heart of Paris is hiring a new junior PI. It has a nice start up package and excellent I. Curie facilities. Please spread the word: Deadline Dec. 18th! jpi-recruitment-curie-umr3215-u934.curie.fr

Looking forward to the plenary talk by Marco Milán @milanlab.bsky.social at #SEBD2026! #ICREA Research Professor and Group Leader at @irbbarcelona.org , Marco has made major contributions to our understanding of tissue growth, developmental patterning, chromosomal instability, and tumor progression

Counting down to #SEBD2026! 🎉 First up in our speaker spotlight series: Opening Keynote Antonio Giraldez (Yale University), a pioneer in #DevelopmentalBiology and #RNA regulation. His groundbreaking work revealed how #microRNAs control the maternal-to-zygotic transition

Nominations are open for the Hugo Bellen and Catherine Tasnier Drosophila Neurogenetics Lecture—recognizing outstanding early career work in Drosophila neurogenetics. The award includes a cash prize and conference travel and registration for #Dros27. 🔗https://buff.ly/NUvMqTM

📢 We are looking for a Junior Group Leader to join us at @institutcurie.bsky.social! Having joined the department just over a year ago, I can honestly say that it is an exceptionally stimulating and supportive scientific environment, filled with outstanding colleagues — all in the heart of Paris.

Open your lab here at Utah! utah.peopleadmin.com/postings/208...

Have a look into our second August issue: link.springer.com/journal/4431... The cover features work by Marco Milán and co-workers showing that a tumour-host feed-forward loop contributes to the growth of chromosomal instability-induced tumours in Drosophila. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

📸 As my first featured cover, this is a really special milestone for me. I’m grateful for the support from my team along the way. Thanks a lot to the editorial team of @emboreports.org for making this possible. @milanlab.bsky.social @irbbarcelona.org

🔬 Fred Hutch Cancer Center is hiring an Assistant or Associate Professor in the Basic Sciences Division @basicsci.fredhutch.org. Join a world-class research community in Seattle and help advance discoveries in fundamental biology. Apply: https://apply.interfolio.com/190640

Be my colleague! We are seeking Assistant/Associate Professors in these areas: Immunology, including but not limited to cellular immunology Infection, Bacteriology or Microbiology This is a good place to work, with excellent students and colleagues and an interactive, encouraging environment.

Establish your lab in our department! We're looking for new colleagues doing exciting science. Come join a broad department interested in all aspects of biology from biomechanics of fossils (and live cells) to neuro-AI, via (of course!) the many facets of modern developmental biology.

Now out in Annu Rev Cancer Biol: "Beyond Mice and Men." We think of cancer as a disease of humans, as well as pets 🐈‍⬛ 🐕 & lab mice. But cancer is found across the animal tree of life, including clams and fruit flies. Comparative oncology has a lot to teach us. 🧵 www.annualreviews.org/content/jour...

Exciting - UBC is recruiting a cell and developmental biologist. Come join the great research community in vancouver!

I’m thrilled to share that our search for a tenure-track colleague in my *truly wonderful and collegial* Genetics, Genomics, Evolution and Development Division in the MCB Department at Berkeley @berkeleymcb.bsky.social is live! Please share this broad search widely: aprecruit.berkeley.edu/JPF05481

📣 📣 📣 📣 To all Drosophilists: the call for Workshop proposals at the 2027 European Drosophila Research Conference in Bonn (20-23 September 2027) is OPEN! Go to link below for instructions. Closing date: 30 September 2026. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 tinyurl.com/45y8trzd

Today we congratulate #SEBD member Elisa Marti @ibmb-csic.bsky.social for being one of this year’s awardees of the ERC advanced grants! With her project SpinaLogic her research group aims to unravel the direct conection between the genetic mutations associated with Spina bifida (1/2)

Interesting resource for those starting with #Drosophila research (set of videos by Bruno Lemaitre) youtu.be/aUewlFU-6rw?...

Our paper "Gene ancestries reveal diverse microbial associations during eukaryogenesis.” is finally out in Nature. Eukaryogenesis was likely a gradual process shaped by multiple microbial partners and virus-mediated gene transfer, rather than a single binary symbiosis. doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Fantastic news for the lab! We've just been awarded a Wellcome Discovery award and will be recruiting at postdoc and research assistant level shortly. We're excited by this project that aims to understand how metabolism influences male germline development. Please forward to any interested people!
