Have you heard about MycoEd yet? A model educational program offering training for students on fungal genome sequencing and analysis. how powerful!! #mycofam #thefutureisfungal

Myco-Ed: Mycological curriculum for education and discovery
Fungi are important and hyperdiverse organisms, yet chronically understudied. Most fungal clades have no reference genomes, impeding our understanding of their ecosystem functions and use as solutions...

Closing out the talks Rytas Vilgalys helps us understand how the mycobiom varies in the natural world
Rytas is also a driving force behind training the future generations of mycologists
So glad to be a part of this mycofam

Hey Mycofam,
Do you know of any ectomycorrhizal fungi that will form mushrooms in axenic culture, without a plant host?
I want to say there aren't any, but I can't find a reference to back this claim up! I'm happy to be wrong; I just want a ref :P

CERC’s are an awesome opportunity for senior scientists (e.g. full prof) to move to Canada! Specifically at UBC, we’re hoping to recruit someone working with mycomaterials/biomaterials - any suggestions?! 🍄 #mycofam
Do you know (or are you) a senior scientist in the USA who might like to move to Canada in the near future? The 2026 call for CERCs (Canada Excellence Research Chairs) was posted last month: 🧪 ⚛️ 🔭 🇨🇦
Canada Excellence Research Chairs - Home
The CERC Program offers eligible Canadian degree-granting universities the opportunity to establish research Chairs at their institutions in research areas that are of strategic importance to Canada.

Ok, #mycofam, someone needs to:
(1) 'fess up and tell me who did this, or
(2) alert the estate of Emory Simmons that they drastically misspelled his name.
Seriously, what's going on?!?
