- Thank you for the highlight of our work! #drosophila #cancer model.
- As a “fly person” even I have to admit this is pretty cool! 😎
- Reposted by Buttitta LabProposed cut to NSF Biology budget is 70%. 70%. Seventy. Call your senators & reps nonstop. Give them numbers on NSF impact for state/district. tableau.external.nsf.gov/views/NSFbyN... explain this will decimate the economy if their districts, especially if it has a major research univ. 🧪
- Presidential budget is out. Here's NSF. Biggest cut, by amount, is $1 billion, or 66.8%, from MPS (Physics & Math directorate). nsf-gov-resources.nsf.gov/files/00-NSF...
- Pleased to share and amplify our most recent paper. Looking at #oncogene effects in the #drosophila #prostate which is #postmitotic and #polyploid. 🧪

- Reposted by Buttitta LabIf using Bloomigton #Drosophila Stock Center stocks, pls. acknowledge them & their NIH funding (P40 OD018537). Papers listing this no. are being harvested as evidence. We massively depend on the @bdsc.bsky.social & they need our support in these dire times! @flybase.bsky.social @fly-eds.bsky.social
- Reposted by Buttitta LabPublished an op-ed for @cnn.com: “Nobel laureate: I owe America my success. Today, its scientific future is in danger.” A personal reflection on what’s at stake as science funding gets slashed. I’d be grateful if you could amplify both in and beyond the science world. www.cnn.com/2025/04/09/h...

- The “drosophila dress” at #dros25. (For the fly peeps - zoom in on the pattern at the neckline)

- Reposted by Buttitta LabBefore it is all taken down, a good reminder that the NIH has (or maybe had) an expansive definition of what constitutes diversity. So this means less participation by #womeninSTEM, #URMinSTEM, #disabledinSTEM, plus those that grew up rural, #firstgen, unhoused, or low-income. #academicSky 🧪👩🔬 2/n
- Reposting as the deadline to submit draws near.
