Very proud to host the great one and only Catherine Dulac @dulaclab.bsky.social at IGFL, @igflyon.bsky.social @ensdelyon.bsky.social, on June 1st 2026! I am all excited like a fan can be when meeting one of her idols 😱. Don't hesitate to join if you're in Lyon that day 🧠
In animals with large genomes, finding cis-regulatory elements can be very challenging. Enhancers can be located tens/hundreds of kb away from their target promoters. We face this challenge in Parhyale, with >3 Gbp genome.
We just published a preprint describing how we are tackling this problem. /1
🧠 IGFL External seminar | @dulaclab.bsky.social (Harvard/HHMI) deciphers the neural circuits underlying instinctive social behaviors (parenting, mating, aggression) and how the brain drives adaptive behavioral changes during sickness. What a treat! 🧠

These images show live embryos of animals (jellyfish, crustacean, worm, sea urchin, sea squirt, beetle) and one of animals closest single-celled relatives. They were captured taking advantage of fluorescent proteins localised on the outer membrane of cells, allowing us to observe cell outlines. 1/9
