Excellent talk on environmental sensing based on proteins kinome Competitive fitness profiling of A. fumigatus mutants by @bromleymichael @UofMMFIG #HFP2022

#HFP2022 @UofMMFIG @bromleymichael “we have been able to isolate Aspergillus from the compost heap in my garden, even though it is not well maintained”

Phe-BODIPYs: a new class of small fluorogenic amino acids to make 'turn-on' peptides for imaging pathogens. Free paper @angew_chem➡️onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…. Work led by the Mendive-Tapia siblings (!) and great collaboration with @CanZhao5 @aztul @EdinUni_MeetCIR @ERC_Research

Congratulations to all poster prize winners!! MFIGer @LaurenDineen92 has won a prize for her work on the tRNA-ome

@jessiemacalpine Thank you, this is really helpful😁

Touché!!!

@jessiemacalpine Hi Jessie, just a quick question please. Do you know whether 1-ECBC is fluorescent by any chance? Many thanks :)

Is it possible that if we stop using azoles in the fields there'll be a reduction in fungal resistance? I hope this proves true phys.org/news/2021-12-d…

@NormanRhijn Is this an image stolen from Issy? 😹@issyinthelab

Fungi under the microscope look so innocent. Who would think fungal infections account for >1.5 million deaths a year?!

If this does not serve as a warning, I'm not sure what will. - 21 years of age - No underlying health conditions RIP Chloe. news.sky.com/story/coronavi…

@MFIG_Bignell A very very sad day, Nick was a fantastic scientist and a very dear friend and mentor to me, all the days we spent together are flashing back constantly. Miss him

Very sad to say that our dear, brave, clever, generous and hugely talented colleague and friend, Nick Read, has passed away. He was a world class cell biologist and fabulous guy. Send condolences for Nick’s family to elaine.bignell@manchester.ac.uk

The novel coronavirus is forcing scientific conferences to be canceled around the world. Scientists are looking for new ways to connect and network without them, something some say is long overdue. #COVID19 go.nature.com/3b1M0P4

I hope everyone has a chance to watch this informative interview on lesson learned from #coronavirus about potable CT scans, why home quarantine may not work and how to break chains of transmission by #newyorktimes health and science reporter Donald McNeil

Watch this. It shows why we should all do the right thing and stay home to the fullest extent possible. All of us can help slow the spread of the virus, protecting the elderly, the vulnerable, and each other. washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/…
