#dros25 got off to a magnificent start!
Kicking off: Peiwei Chen's "Sandler Lecture" about piwi, piRNA & the mechanisms of gene silencing.
Scoring the touchdown: Denise Montell's "Rac to cancer immunotherapy," a tour de force of the long strange trip from basic #Drosophila biology to medicine

..."women _and the poor._"
At #dros25 I had a conversation with several #Drosophila people who are far better known than I am. One is the scientist-daughter of a very famous, now deceased, Fly Person. None of them knew about this provision. The women were particularly incensed. As they should be!

On my way to #Dros25 by train after a quick visit with the in-laws in LA. Looking forward to reconnecting with my fellow fly researchers! Model organism research is fundamental to our understanding of how biology works so we can develop new approaches to address human health issues.

This isn't the America I was raised in, nor the America my parents' generation fought to defend.

U.S. Says Decision to Turn Back French Scientist Had Nothing to Do With Trump
The Department of Homeland Security said the academic was denied entry because he had “confidential” data from an American lab, not because of his views on the president’s policies.
