Attending #Fungal26? Want to learn more about @jgi and @EMSLscience? We will be hosting a workshop at 12:30 on Friday highlighting our efforts toward 10,000 Fungal genomes and phenotypes.
Read about Adriana Corrales (@adri_corrales33), expedition leader at the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks (@spununderground), and her team's efforts to save the Colombian black oak through an ongoing @jgi #CommunityScience proposal:

Also at @jgi - @EMSLscience session today, Stephen Mondo promoting the Myco-Ed CURE: a program for coordinated hands-on experiments across fungal teaching labs to help diversify student experience in fungal biology & genomics mycocosm.jgi.doe.gov/mycocos…
#Fungal24
At the @jgi - @EMSLscience lunch session, Igor Grigoriev discussing capabilities toward 10,000 fungal genomes and integrative multiomics, as well as a call for community characterization of conserved proteins with unknown function #Fungal24
Attending #MSAfungi23? Come chat with Stephen Mondo @jgi during today's poster session (5:30-7pm MST) on two exciting topics:
Predicting Gene Function and Metabolic Capabilities in Yeasts (PS2-045)
Fungal Biology Curriculum: Bringing Genomes into the Classroom (PS2-040)
Congratulations to to everyone involved in the @MolBioEvol paper!
