Background in cell biology or fungal genetics? Looking for a postdoc? Then look no further… TWO opportunities to join @BallouLab and me as a postdoctoral fellow @IMIBirmingham: jobs.ac.uk/job/BNV770/res… (deadline 7th Dec) jobs.ac.uk/job/BOJ953/res… (deadline 20th Dec)
Hello #fungal world! I’m looking for a postdoc to join my lab @IMIBirmingham. If you have molecular biology skillz and find this movie intriguing, please get in touch! Please RT bit.ly/2Dmrifw
A postdoctoral position is available with @talbotlabTSL to investigate the molecular basis of lichen symbiosis #ScienceJobs #Lichen tsl.ac.uk/?p=8012
PhD position available to study the cell wall of Zymoseptoria, one of the main pathogens of wheat in the EU. Please retweet! 😊 exeter.ac.uk/studying/fundi…
I’ll be advertising a postdoc position in my lab in the near future- if you’re interested in joining my team at @IMIBirmingham to work on #cryptococcus cell biology, please get in touch! Experience in fungal genetics, microscopy, and molecular biology a must. Please RT!
Thought I’d give this a try. @TheLastLeg @StopFundingHate and the rest of you need to help me reach 250,000 retweets so my parents stop reading The Daily Mail. A deal is a deal. #isitok #stopfundinghate
DRAGOTCYTOSIS! Our preprint reporting that lateral cell transfer of Cryptococcus neoformans in macrophages is the result of an non-lytic exocytosis event followed by phagocytosis now live. Process named after grad student @dragotakes who discovered it! biorxiv.org/content/early/…
IPMB2018: Immediate Review of the ECJ Ruling on Plant Genome Editing. - Sign the Petition! chn.ge/2vnXie4 via @UKChange
The decision of the European Court of Justice on genome editing has sparked tremendous frustration amongst scientists. Sustainable agriculture & food security in Europe are now at risk. More communication to the public needed. Read the VIB press release: bit.ly/2mXyGEn

Cryptococcus neoformans (CN) is unusual among pathogenic fungi in that it has a capsule that covers the cell wall, where adhesins usually reside. Since these adhesins are not accessible, CN attaches to surfaces using different tools, like capsular polysaccharide.

My reaction to the unbelievable ruling by the CJEU that genome editing is considered equivalent to transgenic technology, while random mutagenesis is not. Slavish application of the 'precautionary principle' based on no scientific evidence. @BBCFarmingToday
