Congratulations Taylah!
Congrats to @MasseyUni & @BioprotectionNZ student Taylah Dagg, who just submitted her MSc thesis! Taylah used proteomics to identify changes in the secreted protein profiles of P. agathidicida, P. cinnamomi & P. multivora during co-culture. Well done Taylah! #ProudSupervisor 1/3

Stunning #scienceasart from @hawley__hannah, Celestine Roberts and @NeurogeneticsNZ from the @MasseyUni Neurogenetics Research Group
We also compared the expression patterns of neuronal GAL4 drivers in the adult brain, and levels of expression in the mushroom body. While this colour scheme didn’t make the cut, these are the patterns of two of my favourite drivers elav and OK107 in the anterior of the brain!
