Just watched an amazing talk from @linder-surprise.bsky.social at #CFN25 on mechanisms driving high glycolytic rates in yeast. @canfunnet.bsky.social
Linda already announced on here, but it still makes me really happy to know she will be starting as faculty at the University of Guelph next month!

A hand holding a mug with a design of maple leaves and seashells. The leaves have spots on them.

A mug that says “4th Annual CanFunNet Fungal Biology Conference” and has the date June 2, 2023. The last line of text on the mug reads “from coast to coast”

Ready for day 2 of #CFN25 with my @canfunnet.bsky.social mug from the 2023 meeting!

Ready for Day 2? We will see you at
#CFN25 in 2 hours! Can’t wait 🇨🇦🍄🥅

With that, Day 1 of #CFN25 comes to a close. Can't wait to see you all tomorrow for another amazing line of speakers with some very cool and awesome topics of discussion.

Also, don't forget to attend the Career Workshop tomorrow at 4 PM EST. Come prepared with all your career-related questions!

Amazing work from Dr. Anne Hatmaker @annemakerofhats.bsky.social at @canfunnet.bsky.social #CFN25

She takes us on a deep dive into the diversity of Penicillium isolates from diverse habitats

Ready for some more fungal talks? Come back at 4 PM (EST) for our 3rd concurrent sessions for day one. #CFN25 is where we put the FUN in Fungal Research 😉 🍄

The concurrent sessions have started! Come into pheedloop and join us!

Haven't registered yet? Not to worry, registration is still open. #CFN25 is happening right now!!

First plenary: @kamounlab.bsky.social discusses the evolution of Magnaporthe oryzae, minichromosomes, and the fieldwork done in the “blastmobile” (love this vehicle name!)
#CFN25

Excited to tune into the CanFunNet meeting! @canfunnet.bsky.social

Check out our trainee Isha Jain's presentation on Friday in the Fungal Genetics & Genomics VI starting at 3:50pm

#CFN25

Great introduction to CanFunNet with Dr. Horianopoulos @linder-surprise.bsky.social

Today's the day!! If you are attending #CFN25 then check out my talk this afternoon at 4pm Eastern, 3pm Central! I'll be talking about Penicillium in the Fungal Genetics and Genomics III session 🍄 Looking forward to virtually seeing you soon!

It’s conference day! Are you ready? If you are presenting, don’t forget to use the new #CFN25 zoom backgrounds (emailed to you already). Also, check out the photobooth in Pheedloop!!

Can you believe #CFN25 is just one week away? Keep an eye on your emails for updates from us!
Speakers and Moderators — please double-check the times and locations for your sessions. Registration is open—don't miss our lineup of plenary speakers! Sponsored by @biologists.bsky.social

So excited for these presentations!

20 concurrent sessions, 9 plenaries and lots of fungal fun! 🍄
