VEuPathDB

Sequencing databases are vital to interpreting genomes, but come at a cost and requires community support. Recently, FungalDB and VeuPathDB have moved to subscription services. If you use these resources, please explore the changes and consider joining the community effort to sustain them.

Will climate change lead to more fungal infections? | News | Wellcome Fungi can keep us healthy or cause disease. As climate change drives fungi to adapt, learn how we can harness the benefits and tackle the threats.

Fungi play a crucial role in ecosystems with extraordinary adaptability. Their benefits are immense, but also includes risk. @wellcometrust.bsky.social, we're concerned about the implications for human health in the face of climate change and emerging pathogens

Can bioimaging build capacity in fungi research? This month's guest expert is Dr Elizabeth Ballou, Sir Henry Dale Fellow at the University of Exeter. Fungi are beautiful and very charismatic.

Antifungal resistance is an important part of antimicrobial resistance.

But there are many fungal pathogens we don’t know anything about. Could bioimaging be part of the solution?
