Our group is interested in developmental, metabolic or behavioural sex differences and aims to understand how sex chromosome constitution (XX versus XY) impacts physiology across the body. Could you please pass along your colleagues and/or post on your institute websites the attached flyer with more details about the positions? Thanks a lot!!

If you are looking for a fulfilling, fly-related career away from the lab, and enjoy the challenge of organizing complex data clearly and concisely, then this is the job for you! FlyBase curators extract biological information from scientific articles about the model organism Drosophila melanogaster, recording and organizing these data in template forms and graphical interfaces. Phenotype curators focus on data that illuminate the function of genes based on their mutant phenotypes and genetic interactions. All curated data are subsequently integrated into our central database and made freely available via the FlyBase website. Additional responsibilities of phenotype curators include: developing strategies/tools to improve curation; enhancing data display/querying on the website; and interacting with the research community through HelpMail and presentations/help desks at research conferences. Curators also contribute to FlyBase publications and have the opportunity to develop computational skills (e.g. Unix, scripting, SQL). More details and a link to the application form are here: http://www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/23086/ Closing date for applications: Monday, 14th October 2019 The Francis Crick Institute Limited is a registered charity in England and Wales no. 1140062 and a company registered in England and Wales no. 06885462, with its registered office at 1 Midland Road London NW1 1AT -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two devastating, mid-life, neurodegenerative disorders for which no cure is currently available. A GGGGCC (G4C2) repeat expansion in C9orf72 is the most frequent genetic cause. Previous work has identified several novel modifiers of C9orf72 repeat toxicity in adult Drosophila neurons, and the aim of this post is to further investigate these novel modifiers in flies using fly genetics and pharmacological treatments, and fly phenotyping, including molecular and biochemical techniques. Applicants must have a PhD (or be studying towards it) in relevant subject area. Experience with molecular and biochemical techniques is essential.

Speakers: Daniel Ranson: Pharmacological and genetic targeting of GABA-B receptors alter alcohol-induced behaviours in Drosophila. (Casalotti Lab, UEL) Ian McGough: Glypicans shield the lipid moiety of Wnts to enable signalling at a distance. (Vincent, Crick) You will first need to check in with the security desk near the seminar rooms, who will have your name on a guest list if you are subscribed to the LFM mailing list. Any attendees not subscribed will need to grab one of the Crick scientists who will be waiting at the entrance, and they will then help take you through security. As usual, Beer and Pizza will be provided courtesy of the Genetics Society.
