A galaxy of colorful goo swirls around this petri dish! 😍

The goo is released by endophytic fungi, fungi that live with a plant and don’t cause disease. They are largely beneficial for the plant, enhancing the plant’s growth and nutrient gain. Both the plant and the microorganism benefit from their symbiotic relationship 💚

These fungi ooze out exudates, liquid reservoirs that contain enzymes and other products, to help their cells survive. They can then reabsorb this external cache when needed.

Some from the linked above💡💡💡

“Importantly, in my view, the term ‘genetically similar to’ also helps to avoid the assumption of homogeneity within labels; ‘similar to’ does not imply ‘same as’. Similarity-based sample descriptors also move us some way to acknowledging the continuous nature of across in our sample descriptions. I am more genetically similar to some samples than I am to others, but that does not imply that there are natural groupings. Nor do similarity-based labels imply how I, as an individual, might choose to identify or what distribution of environments I might experience. For example, a person may be genetically similar to 1000 samples labeled Southern Asian, yet in itself this similarity does not identify them as Southern Asian, whereas stating that a person has ‘Southern Asian ’ comes much closer to making that linkage in people’s minds.
Working out the of individuals and of groups of people from around the world is a fascinating area of research, but it should not be the day job of the majority of researchers in the field of , who instead need accurate sample descriptors of current day that aid clear communication.”

folk apparently suck at Excel so genomes are being converted to dates and number. This is hilarious

I finally have the time to write an introduction:
I am a , currently working in the industry. I have a long-standing interest in the study the correlation between the 3D structure and dynamics of proteins and their regulation mechanisms. thought my research I had used , , , FTIR, , , , and more.
When I have time, I enjoy to , specifically do with my kids.

Hi Fediscientists,

Does anyone know of any Biomedical Engineering labs in the UK that are passionate about ?

I'm putting in studentship applications at the moment and would love to apply to labs like that.

Thanks!
