NSF needs to hear from you. Among other points, I suggested: keep politics out of science; stop using the threat of cancelling scientific grants to try to control universities; increase NSF funding for fundamental research. Pls send around. Deadline is January 27. Thanks

This fundraiser, led by the International Mycological Association, supports travel awards for mycologists to attend the International Mycological Congress (IMC) in South Korea in 2027.
By supporting this campaign, you help make global science more inclusive.
To donate, go to gofund.me/b685b6dd8.
Please consider donating to this cause. We started this fundraising initiative to help mycologists from low-income countries attend international mycological congresses. The next one is in South Korea 2027. Help us make fungi science more accessible! gofund.me/c8eaea7df

It is official!! I have been awarded an NSF grant of ~$1 million for the project: "Exploring the role of fruit-eating bats in the dispersal of plant pathogens and the Escape hypothesis." Co-principal investigators are Gloriana Chaverri (yes... my sister... @morceglo.bsky.social ) and Max Chavarria.
We are looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join an exciting project investigating the effects of bat seed dispersal on plant microbiomes and pathogen dynamics in tropical ecosystems. With @morceglo.bsky.social. More info: jobs.apsnet.org/job/postdoct...
Stay tuned for the next Chaverri sisters project! Artificial roost with Carollia perspicillata bats and the “bones” of Piper sancti-felicis fruits. What does this have to do with fungi? @morceglo.bsky.social

We finally published this paper! It took some time, but it’s out now! In short, we found that the limited fungal diversity and “low-functionality” of the sloth gut microbiota might help explain their "slothness." 🦥 This was an amazing team effort! link.springer.com/article/10.1...
