Researchers have discovered a cell surface receptor that is essential for adipose #tissue responding properly to #insulin. When the receptor is inactivated, the response to insulin is insufficient. However, a researcher says that it may be possible to stimulate the receptor –…

Latest from the lab: What are the mechanism by which insects maintain systemic ion and water balance as they interact with their environment? Another great collaboration with @DenholmLab!annualreviews.org/eprint/FXMYNQH…

Let's try this again - look's like twitter can't handle the video 😂. Really excited to share the lab's first Drosophila paper and it's a big one. Check out our preprint shorturl.at/gqrvO where we present the complete neural connectome of an animal circadian clock

How do animals weigh competing needs to maintain nutrient and fluid balance? Check out our recent review in #BioEssays in which we aim to provide a framework for understanding the polymodal optimization of homeostasis in insects. Also, pretty pictures... onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/EU9FPTNI…
