It's #Microscopy Monday! Under certain conditions, a mutant strain of budding yeast forms ‘comets’ that move autonomously across the surface of the media, highlighting a striking display of multicellular behavior in this unicellular organism. @Halfmann_Megan (@HalfmannLab)
Big congrats to @avonschulze for receiving an NIH F32 fellowship! Very well-deserved! Can't wait to see the outcome of his project testing fundamental mechanism of aging. @NIHAging @ScienceStowers
