Aspergillus (oryzae) enriches the culinary world with aplomb - not only a very cool pathogen that we love in the lab, but it turns out to make delicious morsels and drinks even more so...nytimes.com/2024/09/03/t-m…
We are recruiting an ID physician to join our clinical team @MSKCancerCenter. The ID service is a wonderful community for clinicians, educators, and investigators, or a mix of all three + has ID fellows. Please RT and apply. #TransplantID #IDJobs healthecareers.com/job/faculty-po…

Thank you @MSKCancerCenter and @EmoryUniversity for highlighting our most recent work on life-threatening fungal infections in patients. mskcc.org/news/msk-resea…
A new study from @MSKCancerCenter that explains why antifungal prophylaxis can fail and lead to life-threatening Candida infections in BMT patients. Huge congratulations to study team. #TransplantID @davidrandes @FungalDoc @GermHunterMD @PergamIC @LionakisLab @NatureMedicine
How could patients on antifungal prophylaxis still get infected by “susceptible” fungal strains? We try to crack this puzzle with a 5-year patient and mycobiome dataset from @MSKCancerCenter and 219 fungal genomes from three continents. 1/n nature.com/articles/s4159…
I don't know this paper in question, but it is not hard for me to believe that much of the data added was in frustrating cycles of reviewer 'requests' for additional experiments. So what could have been a nice series of papers slowly becomes one giant monolith 2/
Was a lot of fun, and boy do I feel sore from kayaking today. Ospreys, herons out in full view in the salt marshes near Sheepshead Bay. Thank you #MSKFunFund! @UshmaNeill @MSKCancerCenter
lab kayak, so much fun!@kmills711 @katrinabmar @tmhohl71 @all labmates

Many commonalities (solving puzzles to make a diagnosis, fitting pieces into a larger clinical/scientific picture) in both endeavors. Roles are complementary and improve capabilities in the other area. Curiosity and investigation are central to high-level practice of medicine.
I am proud to be both a physician actively caring for patients and a scientist. As a clinician I give the most efficacious treatments to my patients. I am also a scientist because the available treatments are often inadequate.
Thanks @NIAIDNews for highlighting our work. @jigarvdesai @marissazar Andrew Wishart. @tmhohl71 @RoschewskiMD
#NIAID scientists learned that people receiving a certain class of #cancer treatments develop fungal infections because the drugs block a pathway that leads to #antifungal immunity. The scientists say this work may lead to improved cancer care: jci.org/articles/view/… Image: CDC
Joe Biden is to the presidency what RBG was to the Supreme Court - trailblazing, honorable, decent, and skilled leaders that undermine(d) their legacy by hanging on too long. It's past time to step down and make room for a new generation to lead and preserve American democracy.
1/n Proud to share our latest work @NEJM. A long journey of integrated basic research and clinical care revealed a central role for IFN-g in driving mulitorgan autoimmunity in APECED and devised a personalized, life-transformative intervention for patients nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
