The paper identifies a double-assurance mechanism in Drosophila neuroblasts that regulates the generation of high-potential transit-amplifying progenitors.

The paper identifies two lineage-committed progenitors in the developing brain that generate forebrain/midbrain and hindbrain regions, and demonstrates their distinct chromatin landscapes and differentiation potential.

The paper describes a CRISPR/Cas9-based method to convert GAL4 to LexA driver lines in Drosophila for educational use in a summer classroom setting.

The paper describes a CRISPR/Cas9-based curriculum enabling secondary school students to generate LexA lines from GAL4 lines, resulting in 16 novel lines and a standardized workflow.

The paper shows that low-level H3K27me3 enrichment by FruC fine-tunes stemness gene transcription in fly neural stem cells, with conserved mechanisms in humans.

The paper describes the generation and characterization of 301 new LexA enhancer trap lines in Drosophila through an international network of educational institutions.

The paper describes the generation and characterization of novel LexA enhancer trap lines in Drosophila through a collaborative interscholastic network.
