Our latest paper @NatureMicrobiol: converting waste into delicious food using fungi. We studied a traditional Indonesian food and discovered a mold domesticated for waste-to-food conversion. Amazing international collab involving scientists, chefs. tinyurl.com/36rzkr57

Nice to see spotlight on fungi in @CellCellPress , but this piece is one-dimensional, only recognizing fungi as (human) pathogens. Ignoring ecosystem services, white biotech etc. Mycologists spoke up previously against this one-dimensional view. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

The fungus 'Neurospora intermedia' (seen from above in this digital rendition that illustrates how it grows) has the potential to change unwanted food by-products into delicious, healthy foods, a new study reports. sciencenews.org/article/fungus…

Isn't it beautiful? This is an inky-cap/Coprinopsis 'baby mushroom' called a primordium. At this stage, all the tissues are ready, like in an embryo, just waiting for the trigger to grow further.

Our new paper @PLOSBiology. We analyzed chemotropism of fungal hyphae to C, N and pH by microfluidic control. Hyphae determine the growth direction in a two-layer flow with distinct compositions that were adjacent but non-mixing. They prefer acid pH. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…
