for those interested in insect neuro-evo-devo - I can guarantee that Max is one of the best and kindest in the biz! an amazing opportunity to be part of building what is sure to be a brilliant new lab 🦋🧠

----- PLS SHARE WIDELY ----- I have 2 positions to fill asap: 1) a 3-year postdoctoral position, creating single-cell atlases across species and development. 2) a 4-year (!) PhD position, to create anatomical atlases. Both will work together on integrating these two strands of information...!

a lot of fun coverage of our Heliconius longevity paper last week! here's me on NPR's All Things Considered for those of us who prefer audio: www.npr.org/2026/06/20/n...

Butterflies may hold clues to longer livesWhy do some butterflies live for months while others survive only weeks? Tufts University researcher Jessica Foley explains what Heliconius butterflies can teach us about aging.www.npr.org

Very excited to finally have this out in the world! The first paper from my PhD (and my first first-author publication) makes the case for a new entrant to the world of long-lived animal models: Heliconius butterflies. Out now in @natcomms.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41... (1/10)

Evolution of increased longevity and slowed ageing in a genus of tropical butterfly - Nature CommunicationsStudying long-lived species across the animal kingdom could provide insights into healthy ageing in humans. This study reveals long lifespans and slowed ageing in Heliconius butterflies, identifying t...www.nature.com
