It's not the Dmel on our poster, guess what species is it?
Carmina Santa-Cruz Mateos from PDN, University of Cambridge: "Condensing the Message: How Notch Signaling Forms Transcriptional Hubs to Control Gene Activation"
Jimena Berni from Medical Research Building, University of Sussex – “Hox Activity Levels Govern the Evolution of Behaviors”
Expect refreshments and pizza, this is a great chance to meet colleagues, exchange ideas, and build collaborations. Spread the word, everyone is welcome!
