Dweck's lab (www.dwecklab.com/)studies the neurobiology of ecological niche adaptations using Drosophila suzukii as a a model. We also study chemoreception in spotted lanternflies and other harmful insects. orcid.org/0000-0002-7017-5020

Students did an excellent job at the 2026 Plant Science Day (8/5/2026). They presented and communicated their summer work and were visited by 210.

On Thursday, students checked the results of their 24-hour SLF behavioral experiment and began the volatile extraction process for the Tree of Heaven! Students are becoming experts at pipetting!

Students went into the field to collect over 200 Spotted Lanternflies in order to begin a 24-hour experiment. So excited to see the results!

Today was definitely fun. We welcomed our 2026 summer cohort of high school students into the lab.

Today was definitely fun. We not only welcomed our 2026 summer cohort of high school students, but they also worked in the lab and the field on a very warm day.

The 2026 Summer cohort of high school students just joined the lab to work on Spotted lanternflies. The students began hands-on lab and field work. @blumenthal.senate.gov ate.gov, @usdagov.bsky.social v.bsky.social, @ctcaes.bsky.social

A revised version of our preprint now includes results from D. biarmipes Or67a paralogs, data from a second D. suzukii Or67a4 mutant, and a model describing how Or67a paralogs are expressed in two distinct neuronal types in D. suzukii. Stay www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
