Can Muslims Fly? The No Fly List as a Tool of the “War on Terror”
Islamophobia Studies Journal, 2017 The securitization phenomenon is based on a racialized logic that predates 9/11 and has roots in the discourse of Orientalism, the practices of European colonialism and, in the more recent times of the 20th century, the internment of Japanese Canadians ...

Fly-FUCCI: A Versatile Tool for Studying Cell Proliferation in Complex Tissues
Cell Reports, 2014 Summary: One promising approach for in vivo studies of cell proliferation is the FUCCI system (fluorescent ubiquitination-based cell cycle indicator). Here, we report the development of a Drosophila-specific FUCCI system (Fly-FUCCI) that allows one to ...

Data Pushing: A Fly-Centric Guide to Bioinformatics Tools [PDF]
Fly, 2008 Bioinformatics tools can be invaluable resources to Drosophila researchers; however, the sheer number of applications and databases can be overwhelming. We present a broad overview of common bioinformatics tasks and the resources used to do them, with a specific focus on resources for Drosophila.

Flying Together: Drosophila as a Tool to Understand the Genetics of Human Alcoholism [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Alcohol use disorder (AUD) exacts an immense toll on individuals, families, and society. Genetic factors determine up to 60% of an individual’s risk of developing problematic alcohol habits. Effective AUD prevention and treatment requires knowledge of the genes that predispose people to alcoholism, play a role in alcohol responses, and/or contribute to

Targeting the tsetse-trypanosome interplay using genetically engineered Sodalis glossinidius.
PLoS Pathogens, 2022 Sodalis glossinidius, a secondary bacterial symbiont of the tsetse fly, is currently considered as a potential delivery system for anti-trypanosomal components interfering with African trypanosome transmission (i.e. paratransgenesis).

Circuit analysis reveals a neural pathway for light avoidance in Drosophila larvae
Nature Communications, 2022 Studying neural circuits requires a multipronged approach. Here, the authors present a transsynaptic tracing tool in fruit fly larvae and combine it with neuronal inhibition and activation to study the circuit underlying light avoidance behaviour.

Fly library boosts gene tool supply [PDF]
Nature, 2007 Massive collection of transgenic Drosophila spreads its wings. Take one complete genome sequence (Drosophila Release 4.3 in this instance), generate interfering RNA transgenes from its predicted protein-coding genes (88% coverage was achieved), and you have a very powerful tool.
