@KylaOst, PhD, was recently interviewed on @CBSNewsColorado about the concerning Candida auris fungus. While it won’t turn you into a zombie like in the TV show #TheLastOfUs, it’s a cause of concern due to its resistance to existing antifungals.

so proud to see @DukeMGM graduate student @CTelzrow, a wonderful scientist, teacher, and communicator, present (and successfully defend) her PhD thesis work today! Congrats, Calla! 🎉 🍾 And kudos to @AlspaughLab for outstanding mentoring!
I am beyond thrilled to share this special place with so many of my talented trainees: @KylaOst, @ShannonEsher, @HannahEBrown3, and @teresa_omeara. So happy to see each of them thriving in their individual scientific careers and thankful to @MBLScience for reuniting us! 🍄🤓

Our gut microbiome is composed of more than bacteria. It also hosts fungi.
Researcher @KylaOst joins us on #SciFriLive📻 to discuss new research suggesting yeast in the gut may also be related to severe cases of inflammatory bowel disease.

Thrilled to share our study out today in @Nature. We found a fascinating interaction between commensal fungi and IgA in the gut! @RoundLabUtah @IbrahimLab3 @teresa_omeara @huntsmancancer @UofUMandI rdcu.be/cotxO

@HannahEBrown3 — you will be missed!! 🍄
Last day of 2020 + last day at my grad school lab bench has me feeling lots of things. Sad to leave @DukeMGM, grateful for my time in the @AlspaughLab, proud of all I have done to earn my PhD, but mostly shocked by the shelves of reagents I have made these past 5 years 🤯🧪👩🏻🔬
Congratulations to Dr. Hannah E. Brown on a successful and fantastic thesis defense! We are all so proud of you, @HannahEBrown3! #cryptochicks 🤓🍄💙
Congrats to our grad student @HannahEBrown3 on her most recent paper! 🤓🎉
Super excited to see our new work on the connection between fungal sterols and the alkaline pH response in print! Shoutout to @AlspaughLab, @CTelzrow, @SaelensJoe, and the other #cryptochicks and #funguys that made this possible!! 👩🏻🔬🍄🥂

This is a great opinion piece from two Duke medical students about the roles they can and should play during a public health crisis. I am very proud of their conviction and courage.
