Very happy to be launching a new #CitizenScience campaign within the scope of ‪@fundive-fungi.bsky.social‬.

You can download, share (and cite!) the campaign' accompanying flyer published in the the open-access platform Zenodo: zenodo.org/records/1679...

This summer, we welcomed Aswathi Gopa Kumar Nair, PhD student from Jena, Germany, to Mycorrhizal Systems Ltd. Her research on Tuber aestivum ecology and fungal interactions brings fresh insight for truffle growers. Results coming soon in open-access—stay tuned!

thanks Andy- there may be a good opportunity next year to run a round table on this. I'm working on a project draft and will update you if this gets accepted!

Thanks Andy!

We hadn't considered this but I will present this idea to the group- I’m hoping we can do a lot more work in this space 🤞

...I participated in a round-table discussion on fungal protein- a nutritional perspective. This isn’t my core field, so to learn from nutrition experts was really quite fascinating. 🍄‍🟫 🔬

Just published- interesting for those of us engaged with fungi but who wish to know more: lnkd.in/dFA8pPZJ
