Can anyone tell from this photo what #Aspergillus this is please? I don’t think it’s fumigatus, but i could have made a bad slide... #microscopy #mycology

This is a great opportunity!
We’re @MRCcmm looking to hire an Early Career Fellow in Bioinformatics, developing their own research programme for 3 years in collaboration with my group. If you have completed your phd < 3 years ago (essential), this is a great opportunity. Pls retweet! bit.ly/36h50rs

We’re getting into the Halloween spirit at a Fisher Lab! We think some zombie creating cordyceps fungi should be added to the display though! 🧟‍♂️🍄 ift.tt/2PATz8f
