🎥 Watch: On a pineapple farm in Peddie in the Eastern Cape, a field trial of biodegradable mulch films showcases how science can serve #sustainability. Funded by the @dstigovza through the South African #CircularEconomy Demonstration Fund and led by #TeamCSIR, the project demonstrates how innovation can reduce plastic waste in farming, boost crop performance and build a greener, more resilient agricultural sector. #AgriInnovation #GreenFarming

Extremely excited to present our paper in which we mapped a thermoregulation network that governs virulence in a human fungal pathogen through genetic suppressors, TurboID proximity ligation assay, and functional regulation via domain-truncation alleles.

Longitudinal data has the potential to transform early intervention in mental health.

That’s why we’re funding researchers to use it to find early signs of mental health problems.

We're looking for diverse, interdisciplinary teams.

Apply by 22 July ⤵️
