We are happy to announce that thanks to support from Society for Molecular Biology and Evolution, we are organizing a meeting on the evolution of fungal pathogens. Stay tuned for more details soon. We hope to see you in beautiful Québec City in a few months.

I'll moderate the #Fungal22 Virtual Networking Meet-Up session on #Biochemistry and #metabolism on Thu March 18 (8 am - 9 am pst), be there!

Sneaky fungi! Eating and being eaten! Working closely with Mark we already know the big picture. Yet, we will tune in to hear the details. Tweeter friends - set the time and join us!

We are excited to share our new paper published in #PLOSPathogens: Mutation in Rob1 drives Candida albicans adapted growth in CF airways. dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

Candida albicans adaptive growth in cystic fibrosis airways is driven by an activating mutation in zinc cluster transcription factor Rob1 that confers hyperfilamentation and increased biofilm formation with Pseudomonas aeruginosa journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…

Studies using a model of cystic fibrosis (CF) airway infection shows that genes related to protection against reactive oxygen species contribute to streptococcal survival in a polymicrobial community. Learn more in #JBacteriology: asm.social/1Yc
