How can we determine the microbial content of brain tissue and CSF from Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s patients? Using Oxford Nanopore of course!

We developed a pipeline to demonstrate the presence of fungal DNA in healthy human brains and AD/PD brains

A great talk given by Guilhem Janbon about extracellular vesicle and antifungal resistance in Cryptococcus neoformans Mycology Department - Institut Pasteur TIMM2023, Athens, Greece

Blandine Denis showing our successful multidisciplinary work at Hôpital Saint-Louis AP-HP to improve patient care with invasive fungal disease 🍄 at #TIMM2023 . 🤝ID - Myco lab - ICUs - pharmacy - pneumology ➡️ ECMM Excellence center 💎

After being cited in about every #TIMM2023 sessions, Feys et al. in the flesh (Simon Feys)! Strong translational data to understand host-aspergillus interaction in #VAPA 🫁. Conclusion slide speaks for itself ⬇️

Always struggled to figure out #corticosteroids and risk of 🍄 infection ?
Now it’s crystal clear between what’s known and what needs to be investigated thanks to Robina Aerts at #TIMM2023

Very excited to welcome all specialists on Aspergillus and Mucorales from all over the world in Milano 🇮🇹, January 2024. Submit your abstract now! See the fantastic programme 🤓 #AAAM24

New in @sciencemagazine, my lab tackled the “sticky problem” of Candida auris to try and understand how this new pathogen can cause outbreaks in hospitals, and discovered a totally new adhesin that is critical for colonization and disease science.org/doi/epdf/10.11…
