This basic scientific research was only possible because the US National Science Foundation, which provided fellowship funding and grant funding to Lauren and myself. Thanks NSF! We are thinking about all of you working there, as well as those who have supported us over the years and have moved on.

Jason McLellan, who played a crucial role in engineering stability into all Covid19 mRNA vaccines, awarded a MacArthur Grant today. He’s done a lot of other things too, but his work is relevant to anyone who has received the vaccine.

pathogenesis or symbiosis with plants, population genomics and evolution of fungal plant pathogens, 
plant-associated fungal microbiomes and plant-microbe interactions, and/or one health approaches to 
fungal diseases and antifungal resistance. Applicants working in other relevant research areas involving 
pathogenic, symbiotic, or mycotoxigenic fungi or fungal-like organisms that affect plant health are also
