Mycological Society of America Conference

At the 2019 MSA conference in Minneapolis, MN, Charissa joined a lineup of speakers on host-manipulating fungi, and grad student Ian presented a poster. It was a great conference full of interesting systems, a big animal pathogen section, and a rowdy auction of fungal kitsch and memorabilia. We are looking forward to the next MSA conference, which will be held in Gainsville, FL.
