Ok #researchers, where are we going now? Twitter was nice. Time to leave, but where are you all going so I can join?

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

Has anyone heard of https://t.co/IVN2aAbFTR ? I was wondering where to publish a "failed" experiment with still interesting hypotheses and methods. I found this in a Nature news: https://t.co/Bhlelwa3oM

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

3 days, and 3 requests to review papers. How to decide which one to review? Time is lacking, and they always request in 2 or 3 weeks. I have other priorities, and you are not paying me (rather we pay when publishing... urgh).

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

Are you ready for this? #ICOM12
Since I'll be on maternity leave, I am recording my participation. Hope you will still enjoy my talk on spore traits!

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

There is only one occasion in life where I go from super happy, to anger, to laughing, to frustration within few minutes... And that happens when I'm grading exams.

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

Thrilled to be participating! I'll talk about spore colour and sizes. #ICOM12

[Pedro M. Antunes @1pantunes]

#ICOM12 in Manchester will be packed with interesting workshops. I'm organizing the one on traits with @SidneySturmer. Looking forward to the talks, discussions and note taking. https://t.co/5clpF52VQG

@RebeccaBunn7 @RebeccaBunn7 found it! Something like this?

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

@RebeccaBunn7 Yes, I think so. Looked like an exploding cork, I can't find the picture unfortunately. It also had some curling hyphae. Maybe an ascus releasing spores?

Expeditions can be hard to maneuver as a mother & scientist.

Intense & exciting to have my essay published in @nytimes exploring how Expeditions can be an Academic Act of Defiance

Do you love fungi? Or at least like them enough to spend few years studying their traits in more detail? I am offering a 2-year post-doc position in my group working on my Vidi project on fungal traits and soil functions. Apply before April 28th! https://t.co/c47x8PQKuO

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

Looking at some spores from the agricultural fields today :)

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

@thecrobe Congratulations! That's awesome!

Our Observation of the Day is this Insect Destroyer #fungus (potentially in the genus Pandora) infecting a springtail, seen in #France by macroblaster2000.

@DvRiD8f52XatGLr It looks so cool. So mysterious!!

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

Absolutely recommend reading. Paper on #Helotiales (#Ascomycota) and their role in plant nutrition. They can form ericoid-mycorrhizae, EcM or "mycorrhizal-like" associations. Very mysterious group. https://t.co/xWFfxpy3lL

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

@thecrobe Haha! Got the same feeling when I started lecturing, and now it turns out that I've learned so much from teaching others!

[Coline Deveautour @coline_micro]

I see, something is wrong. Beautiful failed graph. #R
