So excited that Quanta Magazine released a story around our recent paper on inducing novel endosymbiosis by injecting bacteria directly into a fungus! Specials thanks to Molly Herring for her efforts and skill!

Microbiology will always be one of the most satisfying fields of natural science. Nigh-infinite levels of biodiversity, perpetual room for novel findings, and an evergreen requirement for the advancement of human civilization. 10/10. Big fan. Would recommend.
