Another excellent Cellular & Molecular Fungal Biology Gordon Research Conference held at Holderness School – I won’t blog about the details of the talks since they are intended to be off the record, but you can see the program here. Program chairs John Taylor and Michelle Momany did a great job setting the program slate and vice-chairs Judy [...] A message from the Fungal Cellular & Molecular Biology chairs: Fellow Fungal Biologists, We have only 6 weeks until the Cellular and Molecular Fungal Biology Gordon Conference! We have 11 spots for speakers that will be filled based on poster abstracts and we’re especially interested in giving postdocs and grad students the chance to present. If you [...] Abstract deadline and early registration deadlines have been extended for MSA meeting which will be held June 28 – July 1 in Lexington, KY. MSA/ISFEG MEETING Have YOU registered for the joint meeting of the Mycological Society of America and the International Symposium on Fungal Endophytes of Grasses [...] I’m at the JGI user meeting, which is starting with a Basidiomycete genomics workshop/jamboree, later a meeting of JGI fungal genome advisory board, and the main show: the User Meeting. Looking forward to catching up with scientists from a wide variety of projects and some twitter/blogger types and twittering about [...] We had an impressive marshaling of fungal biologists, database builders, and sequencing centers to discuss what would be important for researchers, developing use cases to demonstrate what is needed by the community, and plotting some courses on how to get there. A more formal meeting report is being prepared, but I can summarize that everyone wants [...] Next week a collection of international scientists with stakes in seeing fungal genome databases evolve and rise to meet the tide of genome data being produced and analyzed from fungi will be meeting in DC. I am hopeful we’ll come up with some strategies and principles that can guide how this data can be more effectively [...] Registration for the 9th International Mycological Congress, held 1-6 of August, is now open. This looks to be an exciting, dynamic, and broad conference on fungal biology covering a great breadth of topics. These include: intricate look at fungal cell biology using microscopy, genetic and molecular biology tools; Evolution of fungi through systematics and comparative biology and [...] Don’t forget to register for Neurospora 2010 held at the beautiful Asilomar Conference center in Pacific Grove, CA held April 8-11, 2010. Get your filamentous fungi fix here! Also save the date for some other important upcoming conferences you may consider attending American Society of Microbiology, Candida and Dimorphic Fungi Meeting, March 22-26, Miami, FL, USA |
