New paper out: Spatial dynamics of filamentous soil fungi in response to a heterogeneously distributed chemical stressor.
@Neumann_Ca and @BielcikMilos explore what happens when fungal mycelia encounter a localized pollutant patch.

Ah f**** I missed it! But there is the 7h video, so please no spoilers 🤫 youtube.com/watch?v=GKbIPnu9…
Does anyone know what the first experiment on a fungal community was? Which scientist or laboratory was the first to use multiple fungi together in ecological experiments?
Currently reading Karl Schütte from the 1950ies (nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/…) and the references in this papers. It is a lot of fun and it´s fascinating how much was already discussed in the 19th century
Before 1881, scientists used gelatin to grow bacteria. It worked—until the cultures melted in summer or got devoured by bacteria! Microbiology needed a better solution. Enter Fanny Hesse, a lab assistant with a brilliant idea
Fanny noticed that agar—used in jams and jellies—was heat-resistant and didn't degrade easily. She suggested her husband, microbiologist Walther Hesse, to try it in the lab. It was a game-changer: stable, clear, and perfect for bacterial cultures

It took me SEVEN years to figure out that you can save a ggplot as a vectorized .svg file ggsave("file.svg"). The svg file can be opened on powerpoint and it will be completely vectorized, even text are still recognized as text boxes! No more recreating plots on illustrator!!!!!
My first conference was a blast. I was not in the mood to tweet, but I was in the mood to get drunk with fellow nerds from across the world.
Grateful for all the new friends and the input you all gave me. Fungal people are awesome

I can highly recommend to join Edith and the soil chips for your PhD and it’s true the colleagues are great
Come for your PhD to us! We want to investigate necromass in #soilchips to better understand its stability. Laboratory based. Fully funded. Really nice colleagues:) Please RT! lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/job…
