Re: [DIYbio] mycovirus therapy

I don't know, but I'm a big fan of fungi!  Their secondary metabolism
is quite extraordinary, but filamentous fungi seem to be pretty low on
the totem pole of what's cool to study in biology.  How many
Universities near where you live have a mycology department of PhD
Mycologist in the Bio Department?  Very few and far between I'd say
unless in agricultural states (in the US).  They are pretty
understudied.
