Check out our pre-proof characterizing an acetate/acetoacetate utilizing enzyme in Leishmania. Helps explain what appeared to be a lack of acetoacetyl CoA ligase in an organism that should require one. @UIowaPeds #krysanlab @SSGCID

Excellent work by @BeattieLab. Congratulations!!!

How A. fumigatus causes brain disease is not well understood, and these infections have extremely high mortality rates. New #mSphere article studies the pathogenesis of cerebral aspergillosis to better understand this disease and develop better treatments. https://t.co/WWagCX5iO9

In just two weeks, UI Health Care researchers published new findings in FOUR high-impact journals on topics from treating metastatic eye cancer to how a fungus adapts to infect human hosts. https://t.co/md8Sr3tTOy

I'm extremely grateful to my mentors, colleagues, and the institutions that have invested in my training. I continue to be humbled by the willingness of people to invest in me as a scientist. The most recent is the NIH reviewers that issued a PERFECT score on my K22.

@NatureComms @UIowaPeds @UGAFungalGroup Welcome our first author to @X, @Laurie_Ristow!!!

[Andrew Jezewski, PhD @JezewskiAndrew]

Our @NatureComms paper is out today! We unravel the mechanistic underpinnings of CO2 tolerance as a virulence trait in Cryptococcus. Membrane and lipid homeostasis controlled through Tor. #krysanlab #linlab @UIowaPeds @UGAFungalGroup

“It’s just a few lines of code, right?”

This is the well-known phrase for someone disregarding the effort put into software dev.

A *FREE* Microbiology Textbook with open licensing and rigorous vetting of written material. Such a refreshing take on an otherwise extortionate pricing model for students who can barely afford to student. Free AND Good?! Madness. Anyone teach it yet?

Congratulations to @rohan_wakade for getting this story out. An in vivo microscopy based screen evaluating C. albicans morphogenesis is pretty darn cool. #krysanlab

[Rohan Wakade @rohan_wakade]

Happy to share our recent findings focused on identifying TFs network involved in regulating the hyphal morphogenesis in the host conditions. Plz have a read. #krysanlab @uiowa
