We’re sad to see one of our technicians @issyinthelab leave COFUN! However she’s not going far as she’s staying at @UofMMFIG to start her PhD - good luck!

We desperately need rapid and accurate diagnostic tests so treatments can begin earlier to give the patient the best possible outcome

It’s #FungalAwarenessWeek ! Fungal infections are often overlooked in clinical diagnoses which can lead to fatal consequences, which is why we need to #ThinkFungus

University has supplied everyone with two reusable masks. Apparently they are really pushing the whole Manchester graphene thing🤷 Wonder if there is any data on graphene in face masks🤔 or is it just a PR thing? I do think they look pretty cool?!

We’re back to working on the Aspergillus fumigatus knock out library! Here’s a phenotype we came across this week compared to wild type. Note the colour change of the media!
