Very cool! Thanks for putting this together - very helpful in providing a broader context for our work, where we are working to understand the genetic basis for PDE in fungi - a complete loss of one parental nucleus during development before meiosis. elifesciences.org/articles/66234
Uniparental nuclear inheritance following bisexual mating in fungi
Discovery of a novel mode of sexual reproduction, termed pseudosexual reproduction, in fungi where both parents are required for mating but only one contributes to the meiotic progeny, similar to hybr...

Have met a couple of them already and will be getting to know more of them soon! Everyone is happy to help connect with other folks. Also trying to get into their program.

I am immensely grateful to my mentors, supporters, collaborators, family, and friends without whom this would not have been possible. I cannot thank Joseph Heitman, MD, PhD, Kaustuv Sanyal, and Andy Alspaugh for their constant support, guidance, and motivation.

The research in my lab will focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms of fungal pathogenesis, with a special emphasis on investigating the cellular and molecular players involved in their growth at human body temperature, allowing them to cause infections.

A big thanks to your efforts for freezing those isolates and support for the past few months.
