+  <h1>Lemur: A Single-Cell Foundation Model for <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> 🪰🔬</h1>
+</div>
+
+**Lemur** is a single-cell foundation model developed specifically for *Drosophila melanogaster*. It achieves fine-tuning-free cell-type annotation using two key innovations:
+  
+- **Comprehensive Pre-training:** Trained on an integrated whole-organism atlas with a unified cell-type annotation schema.
+- **Hierarchical Decoding:** Employs a transformer-based hierarchical cell-type decoder to generate consistent predictions at multiple levels of granularity.
+
+### Highlights
+- **Fine-Tuning-Free Annotation:** No extra training required on new datasets.
+- **Robust Across Conditions:** Consistent performance across various tissue types, experimental conditions, and sequencing platforms.
+- **Zero-Shot Batch-Effect Correction:** Automatically corrects batch effects without further adjustments.
+- **Broad Applications:** Tailored for the fly research community with potential implications for aging and neurodegenerative disease studies in humans.
+
+### Status & Availability
+- **Model Weights:** Available now on the Hugging Face Hub.
+- **Code:** Will be made public alongside our preprint 📄.
+
+Happy modeling! 🚀
