Our gut microbiome is composed of more than bacteria. It also hosts fungi. Researcher Kyla Ost joins us on #SciFriLive📻 to discuss new research suggesting yeast in the gut may also be related to severe cases of inflammatory bowel disease. sciencefriday.com/segments/fungu…

I am beyond thrilled to share this special place with so many of my talented trainees: Kyla Ost, @ShannonEsher, Hannah Brown Harding, and @teresa_omeara. So happy to see each of them thriving in their individual scientific careers and thankful to Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) for reuniting us! 🍄🤓

so proud to see DukeMGM graduate student Calla Telzrow, a wonderful scientist, teacher, and communicator, present (and successfully defend) her PhD thesis work today! Congrats, Calla! 🎉 🍾 And kudos to AlspaughLab for outstanding mentoring!

Kyla Ost, PhD, was recently interviewed on CBSColorado about the concerning Candida auris fungus. While it won’t turn you into a zombie like in the TV show #TheLastOfUs, it’s a cause of concern due to its resistance to existing antifungals. cbsn.ws/3MvkwHy

Congratulations to former postdoc Kyla Ost (University of Colorado, Anschutz) on receiving an NIH innovator award!
