My thesis work is out! 🪰 We often link pain to mammals—sometimes exclusively humans—but what about flies? Thanks to @tuthill.bsky.social for supporting a funky, fun project, and to @NIH & @hhmi.org for funding over the past half decade!

So happy to share this project detailing fly wing sensory neurons! I started this project just by asking what the axons of the wing chordotonal organ looked like, and I found many other cool structures along the way.
