If you are in London, I am happy to visit your lab to pick them up. 1. Any strain with FTG (FM7 twist-Gal4, UAS-GFP) balancer, like Bloomington 6873 2. Any strain with SM6b balancer that harbours both Cy and Roi (rough eyes) markers 3. Any strain with TM1 balancer; TM1/TM6B is especially welcome 4. Any lethal mutant of spz or a deficiency removing this gene Many thanks for your kind consideration in advance.

Hi Tony, We are recruiting additional postdoctoral researchers to join my lab at the University of Birmingham as part of a Wellcome Trust Discovery Award funded programme investigating how the brain resolves behavioural conflict. I would be very grateful if you could share this opportunity with members of your lab and wider networks who might be interested. Apply here: https://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DSM781/research-fellow-postdoctoral Deadline: 1 September 2026. Many thanks in advance for helping us spread the word.

We would be very grateful if you could forward this message to anyone who might be a good fit. No specific prior experience is necessary - we will train the successful candidate. This would be a good opportunity for (e.g.) a recent graduate looking to gain more research experience. Please feel free to get in touch with me and/or James Jepson for informal discussion ahead of applying if desired. Project/role details: "We are seeking a Research Assistant to join the Jepson Laboratory at UCL to investigate how the cell cycle protein Rbf regulates circadian rhythms and sleep in the fruit fly Drosophila. Funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), this exciting project will explore mechanisms that may help explain sleep and circadian disturbances associated with human RBL2 mutations. You will support behavioural genetic experiments to measure circadian rhythms and sleep, maintain and generate Drosophila stocks, perform brain dissections and RNA isolation, and contribute to transcriptomic analyses. You will work closely with Prof. James Jepson and Dr Gabriel Aughey, analyse and present data, and contribute to publications and wider research activities within the laboratory."
