Kicking off the Mid-Atlantic States Mycology Conference 🍄 with a talk about the tastiest of the bunch
#MASMC26
The Climate and Fungi (CLIF) Symposium at Duke kicks off with Dr. Michelle Momany @mcmomany.bsky.social
Where is antifungal resistance coming from? Is it agricultural environments? 🍄🌾🌽🍎
Wish I could have made it in person, but the virtual conference is fantastic!!

Great to see. I understand the microbiologists are not available, since they are all in a staph meeting.
How do fungi grow directionally? We think part of the mechanism involves local translation of mRNA near the tip, especially of cell wall components. Delighted to share our preprint showing that an RNA-binding protein, SsdA/Ssd1, is trafficked to the tip of growing fungal filaments.
🐗 Meet Archaeotherium. #HellPigs.
These extinct Eocene & Oligocene mammals had enormous heads, relatively small brains & were actually more closely related to whales than pigs. Vandy PhD student Brynn Wooten is using their fossilized teeth to learn what they ate #Evolution
There is a new volume in The Fungi Sessions!! I loved the first album by Hannah Read that she performed at Fungal Genetics two years ago.
So excited for a part 2 and there are microscope videos of hyphae accompanying the songs in spotify 😍. 🍄🎶

Yeast 🧽 are fungi 🍄 too!
