Commensal fungi, a force to be reckoned with: Highlight of work of @IlievLab showing Kazachstania pintolopesii, a symbiotic fungus in mice, is shielded from host immune system during homeostasis but induces type 2 immunity during mucus fluctuations cell.com/cell-host-microbe/f…

Thrilled to share the results of our 8-year-long expedition into the Wild, the city of #NYC , the wild west of #LosAngelesCA , and more—in search of the roots of gut fungal commensalism! 🧵nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

3) If you are a tourist exploring NYC attractions #WhatsGoodNYC—sorry, no recommendations for a K.p. tour... (@IlievLab can’t help, but @ThrillistNYC might). 4) If you are a #scientist , check your laboratory mice for K.p (@IlievLab can help)- its alters research outcomes.

Shoutout to the brilliant Alexa Semon @_alexafluor ! She was rocking @IlievLab , now rocking the research on a major gut pathogen C.diff! Beautiful design, congratulations to the team & current lab @joeyzacks @WeissmanLab @IGGPenn
I’m proud to share our recent publication describing the development of a multivalent mRNA-LNP vaccine for C. difficile that incorporates targets across C. diff’s complex life cycle science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Opps, not intended, forgot to share open access link authors.elsevier.com/a/1joCL… “beyond the healthcare arena, advances in biotechnology, drug discovery, agriculture, sustainable fuel development, and the materials industry position fungi as key factors in sustainable production...."

Nice to see spotlight on fungi in @CellCellPress , but this piece is one-dimensional, only recognizing fungi as (human) pathogens. Ignoring ecosystem services, white biotech etc. Mycologists spoke up previously against this one-dimensional view. cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…
