Celebrateβabsolutely!
But donβt stop there.
We expect women to endure systems with deep rooted, known systematic biasesβand the systems are not motivated to change.
Example: It is 2026 and Sweden STILL has only 30% female professors.

Intriguing...
Looking forward to reading more.

Turns out living outside of the US as an American does not make this easier--it just means it all looks EVEN MORE INSANE because you see it from a more normal base line.

If you know me, you know my first thoughts were -- what about fungi--which fungi are acting in this system? No symbiont finds after a quick scearch, BUT the Kohlmeyer et al. 1994 looked into shipworms, marine fungi and decomposition of Mangrove wood....
fun for everyone.
Cool job opportunity
βbut in the USβso thereβs that.
Maybe interesting to some?
We are LIVE now!!! Join in to learn about Joint Species Distribution Modeling!

Join me in giving a late welcome a new Tetracladium!
Tetracladium singulare
Like those soils on the Tibet Plateau-but this time from glacier soil! Not looking like an aquatic hypho.
I didn't have access until now--but hopefully you can check it out!
Congrats to the authors!
