Reposted by J Lucas ArguesoErika Shor @mutant-fungus.bsky.social · 17/09/2025Is this thing still on? Anyway, we have a new preprint out of a story that's been brewing in my lab for several years and is finally ready to see the light of day. It's about what happens to Candida glabrata while it's hanging out inside macrophages. 011
J Lucas Argueso @jlargueso.bsky.social · 19/09/2025The preprint for our super fun collaboration with Erika Shor @mutant-fungus.bsky.social is out. Check it out to see some really beautiful PFGE karyotyping gels from Candida glabrata! 022
Reposted by J Lucas ArguesoGilles FISCHER @gillesfischer.bsky.social · 09/06/2025📢 New paper out in Mol Syst Biol! During the development of WT yeast colonies, small cell subpopulations experience transient, high-intensity mutational bursts. Such hypermutation episodes are modulated by the DNA damage tolerance pathway 🧬 🔗 www.embopress.org/doi/full/10.... 13414
J Lucas Argueso @jlargueso.bsky.social · 10/04/2025Congrats to your mentee! They should reach back out to the same programs they applied, and give them the GRFP news. Many programs limited slots for lack of funds, not because the applicants lacked merit. Smart programs will reconsider their decision. 040

But just remember that they’re not attacking because your work doesn’t matter; they’re attacking *precisely* because it does. So, get some rest, connect with your people, and keep doing it. 18751163
J Lucas Argueso @jlargueso.bsky.social · 31/01/2025This is incredibly sad news. Scott' legacy is monumental and will live long. 010
