Congrats to @jessiemacalpine who recently published DYRK-family kinases regulate Candida albicans morphogenesis and virulence through the Ras1/PKA pathway mBio |journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Earlier this week the Cowen Lab kicked off the Holiday season with our annual holiday party and gift exchange. Always a wonderful time celebrating the accomplishments of such a wonderful group of young scientists 🧫🧬🥼👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬 #tisthescience

A fantastic review authored by two of our senior graduate students. Congrats Sara and Emily on this wonderful body of work. Advancements and challenges in antifungal therapeutic development | Clinical Microbiology Reviews journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/cm…

An exciting day for the amazing and soon to be Dr. Emma Lash who is currently defending her PhD 🍄🧬🔬🥼👩‍🔬🌡️

Some of our talented trainees presenting their work at #HFP2024 that focuses on chemical biology and functional genomic approaches to further our understanding of Candida biology and identify novel therapeutic targets. Looking great team!

Cowen lab members LOVING their time at #HFP2024 🍄🧪👨‍🔬👩‍🔬🥼🫶♥️

Newest Opinion to come out of the Cowen Lab: Interdisciplinary approaches for the discovery of novel antifungals sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

So many wonderful memories Kamela Harris 🍄🫶 A wonderful conference where we learned about all kinds of exciting research and engaged with incredible scientists. Special congratulations to Cowen lab PhD student Sara Fallah for receiving a poster award 🍄👩‍🔬🧪

One of our talented PhD candidates Bonnie Yiu sharing the potential of targeting the casein kinase Yck2 as a strategy to develop novel antifungals 🍄

Congratulations to the Cowen Lab’s most recent PhD graduate Nikki on an incredible defence 🧫🧬🔬🥼🧪

Some of our talented trainees U of T Emerging and Pandemic Infections Consortium 2024 Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Research Day highlighting some of our chemical biology projects focused on characterizing novel antifungal compounds

More research posters from U of T Emerging and Pandemic Infections Consortium 2024 Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Research Day focused on chemical biology and functional genomic approaches to understand and combat the fungal pathogen Candida albicans

Thank you Canadian Fungal Network for inviting us to talk about our work that leverages chemical genomics to advance the development of antifungal drugs. A wonderful afternoon with some great research talks 🍄🧪

Looking back at some of our trainees who attended Canadian Soc. Micro. last week. A wonderful event 🧬🧫 Looking forward to next year already

Our team of summer undergraduate students did a fantastic job presenting their summer research projects at a busy poster session this afternoon. Congrats to all of you on all your hard work!! 🍄🧫🔬🥼

One of the latest manuscripts published by our group that uses the GRACE collection to uncover novel regulators of filamentation. The spliceosome impacts morphogenesis in the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans | mBio journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…

I’m ✨yeast-static✨ to share that my first first-author research paper is officially out in Cell Reports! 📚 Huge thank you to my incredible co-authors and mentors for their hard work and support in making this research possible. 🔬Check it out here: tinyurl.com/ymjww6yp

Happy belated birthday to our fearless leader!!! An incredible afternoon celebrating with our wonderful team (past and present). 🧬🥳🎂
