A fantastic essay for Wellcome from #ListerFellow @BallouLab on the value of bioimaging in medical mycology, and how we can start to close the gap in our understanding of fungi.
“There are very few medications in our antifungal arsenal and even these are beginning to fail,” says Dr Elizabeth Ballou @BallouLab @UniofExeter. Could bioimaging be part of the solution? Learn more in our latest 'Behind the Research’ ⤵️ https://t.co/IXjWGK8fsf

I'm sure people have heard the phrase "One Health" a lot but may not know what it means. In this article "The One Health of Animals, Humans, and Our Planet: It’s All Microbially Connected" @ASMicrobiology explains it very nicely:

Where did the One Health concept come from and what does it mean?
