Last session of #magnafest being kicked off by Wilson Lab UNL telling us about codon usage bias in the blast fungus . #fungal24

First year PhD student Nisha Rokaya talking to a full house about her exciting project in my lab screening synthetic lichens for the ability to produce building materials from Mars regolith #Fungal24

It was great to catch up with past folks from Arkansas Entomology and Plant Pathology at #Fungal24

Congratulations Wilson Lab UNL for this wonderful achievement 👏🏽

We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join our team Max Planck Institute for Biology Tübingen. If you're interested in adaptive evolution of plant pathogens and supernumerary chromosomes 🧬please apply!

Excited to hear from Nebraska's young minds in Science!

We had a great lunch with Tatsuya Nobori! He talked about his research regarding single-cell and spatial analysis of gene expression in plants and about his mentoring perspective UNL PSI UNL PSI UNL Plant Path Grads UNL CROPS Nebraska Biochem Jithesh Vijayan Shilu Dahal

Register for this amazing meeting before 19th May. Our theme is Understanding Fungal Communication: Mechanisms, Interactions and Consequences. Anna Selmecki and I promise you fantastic speakers, including many early career scientists, thought-provoking discussion & lots of fun!

And #cherryonthecake, we got the cover as well! Image credits Neftaly Cruz Mireles Lauren Ryder and Kim Finlay

Peer-reviewed version of our phosphoproteomic analysis of Magnaporthe published today. We hope this resource, in which we identified conserved Pmk1-dependent phosphosites in 41 fungal species, will be valuable. 1/4 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

👏A round of applause to the recipients of the 2024-2025 Milton E. Mohr Biotechnology Scholarship and Fellowship Awards Program! Join us in congratulating these 39 students! University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Nebraska Agronomy and Horticulture, Nebraska Animal Science, Nebraska Biochem, Nebraska Chemistry, Nebraska Entomology,

Super excited to meet up with many of my favorite fungal people next month! There are still a few spots available- registration deadline is this Sunday! There are many fantastic speakers and more will be selected from the poster abstracts, so get yours submitted today.

Thanks Dr. Clemencia Rojas for a great Seminar today! She talked about the ups and downs of developing a product from research and showed some great results of Shilu Dahal and other students followed by a great discussion UNL PSI UNL Plant Path Grads Nebraska Agronomy and Horticulture Nebraska Entomology

Thank you, Nick Talbot Anna Selmecki Gordon Research Conferences for organizing the amazing #FungalGRC24 . Greatly enjoyed all the talks, interactions and networking opportunities.

Until next time, Fungal GRC! Can't wait to come back and resume the discussions in two years. Here are some major themes from this year 1/
