Celebrating first lichen paper from ⁦The Sainsbury Laboratory⁩ with ⁦Gulnara Tagirdzhanova⁩ and ⁦Neha Sahu⁩ in customary style. Hopefully many more insights into these amazing organisms to come!

I enjoyed teaming with Garima, Francesco and Marnix to write this New Phytologist piece ... Breaking into nature's secret medicine cabinet: lichens – a biochemical goldmine ready for discovery nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

Are #lichens truly a treasure chest of #naturalproducts compared to non-lichenized #fungi? We put this to the test using #BGC count as a proxy across ~400 #genomes Spoiler alert: They absolutely are! #PKSs #secondaryMetabolites Article link: tinyurl.com/ynph7npe Department of Biology – University of Padova

Trypsin shaving💈 of A. fumigatus conidia identifies novel surface-associated proteins that aid immune evasion #ECFG17 #GustavoHenriqueGoldman

Excited to be at #ECFG17 in Dublin! Will be live tweeting it in the blue place

Come meet us ECFG17 - 17 European Conference on Fungal Genetics to hear the latest from our lab on #lichen #biosynthetic genes and #RiPPs Or just for a casual chat about fungal secondary metabolism 😊 👇🏼

Standing room only for ⁦Gulnara Tagirdzhanova⁩ describing our analysis of the secretome of the lichen Xanthoria parietina #ECFG17

Had a great time presenting and discussing some of the core focuses of my research ECFG17 - 17 European Conference on Fungal Genetics - #fungi #lichens #secondarymetabolism #terpenes #PKSs #evolution

This is so recognisable for anyone who lived under Soviet-style communism that it is hilarious. I guess "westerners" get to experience it for the first time.

Nice to see our work by Gulnara Tagirdzhanova highlighted in this week's Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Our paper on #biosynthetic genes coding for ribosomal #peptides is out now: rdcu.be/ekux7! We present the 1st report of #RiPP-BGCs presence & diversity in #lichens. Spoiler: they’re ubiquitous & make up ~15–20% of #BGCs. #secondarymetabolites #fungi #genomeMining

🌟Call for Papers on #Lichen #symbiosis🌟 Thrilled to be a guest editor for The Lichenologist, together with Veera Tuovinen, Ioana Onut Brännström, and Ellen Cameron. Send us papers on the inner workings of lichens, submission is open till September 2025! tinyurl.com/2w7wwubm
