Insect research has used Drosophila as a model organism for over a century. But today’s tools now open up a much wider spectrum of insects which deserve to be studied. See the recent commentary in @fly-journal.bsky.social by @peterkdearden.bsky.social, ‘Why just fly?’ doi.org/10.1080/1933...

For those of you with the skills and ‘Drosophila mindset’, studying other insects may help us understand diversity, improve the security of food production, and help avoid the current, worrying, insect apocalypse. More in this recent article in Fly Journal from @peterkdearden.bsky.social

Drosophila melanogaster is an incredible model system, providing tools and technologies that allow careful, effective, and reproducible research. This experimental approach, and the genetic tools a...

New review article in Fly: Dr. Orie Shafer highlights how Drosophila has become a powerful model for dissecting the molecular and neural circuits of sleep, paving the way for future discoveries in both basic and clinical sleep science.

25 years of Drosophila “Sleep genes”

The field of Drosophila sleep research, which began 25 years ago, has identified more than 200 genes influencing sleep. In this review, I summarize the foundation of the field and the growing list ...
