1/3 Thrilled to share our new paper in @CellCellPress led by @jigarvdesai on how complement component C5 promotes phagocyte survival and effector functions for protective antifungal host defense. Read here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
I wish there were data for outside the US doi.org/10.1093/cid/ci… Endemic mycoses must be around, but undiagnosed
@BelkaidLab This is the right energy! Congratulations Yasmine! & congratulations Pasteur
Leah Cowen (@CowenLab), co-director of our Fungal Kingdom program, professor and Vice President, Research @UofT, is studying fungi - how they cause disease and how to thwart drug resistance to treat life-threatening infections. #IWD23 cifar.ca/cifarnews/2022…
@Jacobsen_MI Great to connect with Vets in GRC 2023!
Are you a researcher working on Candida and Candidiasis? Abstract submissions are open for #Candida2023 until 17 February 2023! Find out more and submit your abstract: microb.io/3WmtMiV
Hello #sciencetwitter #MedicalMycology #immunology Registration for the 2023 GRC/GRS Immunology of Fungal Infections is open! Please submit your abstract by October 17, 2022 to be prioritized
