"I needed to rethink my approach to life and work." When this researcher couldn’t sleep or eat, his doctor suggested he rethink his approach to work and life, he writes in this week's #SciMagWorkingLife. fcld.ly/uj05d9i

Happy to share our paper: The mitochondrial genome of the grape powdery mildew pathogen Erysiphe necator. disq.us/t/3yslwpl

We are Hiring. Please RT. Two post-doctoral positions are available in the lab in the fields of Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions and Molecular Plant Pathology. Candidates interested in studying effector biology or antimicrobial resistance mechanisms are encouraged to apply.

Happy to share this work with some interesting findings on mitochondrial genomes of powdery mildew pathogens. microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…
