We put the fun in fungus

Tonight, this is entertainment side of my homework. It's pretty neat.

N. crassa ascospores

Of course, I don't know that I'm interested in fungus long-term, but I have an incredible opportunity to learn an incredible amount about single-gene deletion, genomic defense, gene regulation, and gene expression in eukaryotes. I absolutely love this class. We gather round a dark wood conference table to drink coffee, ask questions with an experienced and engaged Ph.D., and hypothesize about the functional genomics of fungus.
