Much of the genome is made up of repetitive DNA sequences that trace back to ancient mobile elements, many of which have lost their ability to copy themselves into new locations but can still cause pr...

FMI senior group leader Jeff Chao and his team have been awarded €2.5 million through the prestigious European Research Council Advanced Grant scheme to study how RNA controls gene expression in livin...

The genetic program of animal development is conserved, but its rate of execution varies across species. Heterochrony, shifts in the relative timing of developmental events, generates phenotypic varia...

Memories must be flexible so animals can adapt when the world changes. FMI neuroscientists found that in fruit flies, simply tasting a sugar reward again can weaken all previous associated memories. T...

Our annual brochure highlighting the FMI’s key scientific publications, major events, and facts & figures from the past year is now available. Discover the highlights of 2025, a year that marked the F...

Scientists at the FMI and the University of California-Santa Cruz have found that similar molecular machineries control daily circadian rhythms and developmental timing. Their work in worms shows that...
