Bravo to the Dutch who are starting a movement to protect underground ecosystems by removing pavement & tiles SPUN

The 'strange new sport' called 'tegelwippen' has municipalities competing to get rid of the most paved infrastructure

We partnered with JR Biotek Foundation, CSIR-Crops Research Institute, & Oxford University Nanotechnology & Nanomedicine to co-host a Metagenomics Training Workshop in Kumasi, Ghana last month.

12 scientists from across Africa came together to learn cutting-edge FUNGAL sequencing techniques. What an incredible team.

Great to see @Science sharing our expedition to Patagonia and talking about mycorrhizal fungi.

We will be organising an Amazonia+10 workshop on Fungi. Apply here if interested: forms.gle/dgAkzYSUPMnk51…

Urban ectomycorrhizal trees can host a high number of EMF in their roots 👍🥳
But
Urban pollution could be favoring stress tolerant communities that are completely different from rural sites 👎😖
