We are looking for an enthusiastic Phd-student to join us in Copenhagen Department of Plant & Environmental Sciences to work on fungal genomics. The project is in collaboration with Michael Habig. employment.ku.dk/all-vacancies/…

Amazing study and very nice thread!

My interview is out now in Current Biology, thank you for this opportunity to share my career track and research interests. Please see below my thoughts on advice to early career researchers and what I think the public should know about my field. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

This is amazing, if it is fungus mimicry.

There is still time to apply for this! Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions...

New paper from insectdoctors Anna Slowik's recent thesis looks at the influence of temperature match and mismatch between host and pathogen for disease outcome using insects and entomopathogenic fungi... Helen Hesketh doi.org/10.1016/j.jip.…

Our paper in Science Magazine demonstrates that microevolutionary evolvability can predict evolutionary divergence across timescales spanning thousands to millions of years, linking evolution across these vast time intervals. Work led by Agnes Holstad science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

1/2 I am seeking collaborators for a research paper on Lake Baikal macrophytes (macroalgae + vascular plants) diversity. We have data on over 1600 plant communities across ~2000 km of shoreline, including environmental variables (depth, substrate, water chemistry, macroclimate)

Reinhard Fischer reveals how ascarosides activate fungal GPCR, GprC, at the plasma membrane & with G-protein alpha subunit GasA, reprograms cell to deploy its adhesive pads. GprC and GasA also reside in mitochondria and boost respiration. nature.com/articles/s4156… #FungalGRC24

Amelia Amelia Barber is giving quite a talk looking for genomics and community features associated with generalist vs specialist microbes Amelia is the fearless leader of junior research group Fungal Informatics 👇barber-lab.com/author/amelia-… #FungalGRC24

And entomopathogens have entered the chat @ #IMC12! 🤩 Henrik Licht presenting on the locust specialist M. acridum & how you can convince it to infect other insects 🦗 The adaptation is associated with changes in gene exp, esp in genes known to be involved in insect infection!

Are you allowed to cry when one of your mycological hero wins a very well deserved award!!! Congratulations Jens 🏆🥹🥹🥹12th International Mycological Congress (IMC12) #imc12 DTU CeMiSt DTU

I'm excited to share a preprint from some of my PhD work - we found a 'Pathogenic #fungus expresses effector proteins in combination with a symbiotic #virus to behaviourally manipulate house fly hosts'. Thanks to Henrik Licht and co-authors! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

we look very much forward to welcome you here in Copenhagen, Aleksandra!

Jeg er meget beæret over at være portrætteret som Månedens Forsker af Carlsbergfondet og deres dygtige team. lnkd.in/gWa9gCqC

Looks good, all the best to Aleksandra “Ola” Gesiorska and you - I’m sure you’ll create an amazing dataset 🗒️

I am hiring 2 postdocs to work on parasitic and endosymbiotic fungi associated with Hemiptera insects! Ideal candidates will have experience working with symbionts, dissecting insects, meta/phylogenomics and confocal/FISH techniques (or some of these). Info below. Please RT.

Super excited to share our newest paper, out in Current Protocols! A collab btwn FABI & Department of Plant & Environmental Sciences, we put together protoplast extraction protocols for 5 different fungal genera! 🍄 With applications for genome editing & long read seq, we hope this will be super useful!
