Yesterday was a great day. Thanks to Mihalis Lionakis Eric V Dang for the invitation to present my work and all the other speakers and NIH community for making it so fun and engaging 😁

Thank you Gordon Brown Gaffen Lab 17 (Dr. Sarah Gaffen) Iliev Lab ObarLab Kathleen Mills Kelly Shepardson, Suzanne Noble, Amariliz Rivera, Kirsten Nielsen, and Steve Holland for the great talks! It was a great symposium on the role of cytokines in antifungal host defenses!

The link for the faculty position is now posted! Deadline is October 15th. Please share widely with talented scientists in your network. Come join us at UCSF! aprecruit.ucsf.edu/JPF05243

Tomorrow marks the start of Fungal Disease Awareness Week #FungalWeek24 - there are lots of great webinars to educate about threat of serious fungal infections. I'll also be posting key facts all week! cdc.gov/fungal/fungal-…(FDAW,September%2016%2D20%2C%202024.

🚨In The Lancet now #OpenAccess In our comment we urged to look beyond bacteria and include antifungal resistance in #AMR policy decisions Many thanks to all authors Ferry Hagen 🔬🧫🧬 Justin Beardsley Felix Bongomin, MD MSc Dr. Sarah Kidd Ana Alastruey Nelesh Govender thelancet.com/journals/lance…

Super honored to be recognized in this list together with all these fantastic people, including the great Arturo Casadevall and my wonderful "partner in crime" Ana Flores-Mireles. When we work together we enrich each other - happy Hispanic Heritage Month! #LatinxAtlas

Honored to be featured on The Atlas of Inspiring Hispanic/Latinx Scientists with so many incredible people, including Colaiacovo Lab and Flora Pratto!! 👩🏽‍🔬 #meiosis4eva

It's Fungal Disease Awareness Week! Cheap and easy to administer diagnostic tests are key to early treatments! See this interesting article on diagnostic capacity for different fungal infections in Africa: thelancet.com/journals/lanin…

#FungalWeek24 Serious fungal infections are increasing. This is partly due to more use of drugs that disrupt immune responses. You can read about our work that explores how antibiotics do this here: theconversation.com/antibiotics-ca…

Delighted to be co-organizing this unique EMBO|EMBL symposium titled "Infection: pathogens, hosts, and microbiomes." Many talks will be selected abstracts! See you in May in Heidelberg! #EESInfection Please RT! embl.org/about/info/cou…
