2015 Asilomar Fungal Genetics Meetings

Many excellent presentations and great weather at this year’s Fungal Genetics Meetings (March 17-22, 2015).  Here’s a link to the program and abstracts,  and a  link to the #fungal15 twitter feed.  The meetings were well-attended by current and former Duke mycologists.  Some of my highlights included
-opening plenary session talk by Duke’s Nick Buchler on evolution of cell cycle regulation in fungi
-Fungal Biodiversity session chaired by Georgiana May and Linda Kohn, featuring talks by members of the Lutzoni lab
-Contributed session on Environmental Transcriptomics chaired by Cheryl Kuske and myself, and featuring talks by Sunny Liou and Greg Bonito
-sneaking out with the lab group to visit Point Lobos State Park
