Dweck's lab (https://www.dwecklab.com/)studies the neurobiology of ecological niche adaptations using Drosophila suzukii as a a model. We also study chemoreception in spotted lanternflies and other harmful insects. orcid.org/0000-0002-7017-5020
- Reposted by Hany K. M. Dweck (هاني دويك)Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays: Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink. If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business. Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

- A revised version of our preprint now includes results from D. biarmipes Or67a paralogs, data from a second D. suzukii Or67a4 mutant, and a model describing how Or67a paralogs are expressed in two distinct neuronal types in D. suzukii. Stay www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Good job Qi!
- Our first big preprint, led by the great Dr. Qi Xue @Qi_Xue_94 . We discovered three mechanisms for olfactory adaptation in the fruit pest Drosophila suzukii, two of which are novel .Well Done Qi; you will be a great professor. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

- Reposted by Hany K. M. Dweck (هاني دويك)🎈Our latest 🪅 We know that in addition to exteroceptive mechanisms, interoceptive chemosensation is also critical for regulating physiology/behavior. We find that an enteric neuron in worms senses ingested salts via a variant ionotropic receptor (IR like the fly IRs) to regulate salt stress. 1/n
