Early Valentine's gift from my husband. Very relevant to how I've been feeling lately 😣

Always enjoy seeing what fungi like. same fungus from left to right:
1. Control (PDB) at 20 C
2. PDB at 37 C
3. PDB + ammonium nitrate and urea
4. PDB + Sorbitol
We've done this with 50 different species and I'm very looking forward to analyzing the data soon 🤩

I love Rodrigo y Gabriela so much.
I always listen to them when I write and therefore, they've been #1 in my spotify wrapped for a few years now.
I highly recommend it if you like instrumental rock.
Love the other top artists too! Been listening since I was a teen.

Remember when you did something in grad school and you hated it so much and you were done and thought you would never do it again and then years later you're doing it again as a PI? 😭😭😭😭

About to get started with inoculating to measure heterotrophic respiration of fungi 😣😣😣😣 1/2

The most meaningful is a gift from a very good friend from grad school. We hadn't seen each other for 8 years. We saw her briefly a couple of days ago and she surprised me with a #mushroom ornament of my family 🥰 3/3

The best souvenir I have from when I worked investigating deep sea fungi!

Made this souvenir for my boyfriend who's now my husband so now it's actually mine 😅

I let my students pick what they want to do for lab meeting. This semester we read papers, colored mushrooms, learned about the different types of rest, and practiced thesis defense presentation.
What do other labs do for lab meetings? @academic-chatter.bsky.social

This one took a while 😰, but so happy it's out: academic.oup.com/femsle/advan... "Tracking fungal species-level responses in soil environments exposed to long-term warming and associated drying"

I'm Mexican 🇲🇽 and Mexico is a country under a US Department of state travel alert/warning. So I need to fill in risk mitigation related paperwork to attend a conference in my home country; feels very very silly 😬 But looking forward to this 👇🏽
