The paper examines daily structural changes in Drosophila clock neurons using SBEM, revealing rhythmic variations in morphology, synaptic markers, and mitochondrial structure.

The paper identifies conserved transcriptional regulators in monoaminergic neuron development across species using single-cell genomics and spatial transcriptomics.

The paper identifies a conserved transcriptional signature in monoaminergic neurons across Bilaterian species using single-cell transcriptomics and a novel integration method.

This study identifies FAD binding by the C-terminus of Drosophila CRY as essential for magnetosensitivity, explaining non-canonical magnetosensitivity observations.

This study identifies convergent genomic expansions in gene families related to blood-feeding in mosquitoes and sandflies using phylogenomics.

The paper shows that lack of PER in Drosophila leads to genotoxic stress in neuronal progenitors during development.

This study identifies gene expression changes in Aedes aegypti males during swarming using whole-head RNA-seq, finding reduced housekeeping functions and increased cytoskeleton and neuronal connectivity remodeling.

This study reconstructs the evolutionary history of opsin genes in Dipteran species, revealing lineage-specific expansions and duplications, and contrasting evolutionary dynamics between Anopheles and Drosophila.

The paper identifies circadian clock genes in Parhyale hawaiensis, finding missing orthologs of cryptochrome 1 and timeless and atypical CLOCK peptide features.
