#ResultatScientifique🔎| Quand Candida albicans réduit ses ribosomes, ses cellules deviennent plus fluides, ce qui l’aide à changer de forme et à mieux infecter l’organisme 🍄 ✍️ Robert Arkowitz 📕 @NatureMicrobiol | insb.cnrs.fr/fr/cnrsinfo/fl…

Very happy to see our work published! Thank to the editor and the reviewers for all the very helpful comments! 👇🏼 Summary of the preprint version x.com/antonio_serr90…

Excited to share our new study on antifungal drug tolerance in the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans. This work highlights a link between between drug tolerance and cytoplasmic fluidity. Short summary👇(1/10) biorxiv.org/content/10.648… #Science #Microbiology #CellBiology
