Great story! Congratulations @zsantoslab.bsky.social!!!
PhD position in my lab!
Last days to apply this position in our group! Do join us in this great Institute @crg.eu, with great colleagues, and help shaping the science and culture of our lab!
📣 Last days to apply for a joint postdoctoral position between Maria João Amorim´s lab and mine on a wonderful project on how herpes (HSV-1) perturbs the centrosome. Learn a lot about cell biology and host-pathogen interactions! In collaboration with Colin Crump (University of Cambridge).
Join us for a wonderful interaction with the virologist MJ Amorim at the CBR. Virus are helping us to uncover fascinating cell biology of centrosomes and cilia, and at the same time better understand host-pathogen interactions and how those can be targeted. Please spread to those interested!

🚨🚨 New preprint 🚨🚨
We found that the ovary directly controls protein appetite in Drosophila.
Yes — the ovary doesn’t just make eggs… it tells the fly what to eat!
