Middle Atlantic States Mycology Conference (MASMC 2010)
The annual Middle Atlantic States Mycology Conference has taken place every spring since 1979. MASMC meetings also coincide with the appearance of many spring fungi including Morchella spp. This meeting provides new students, postdocs, and mycologists the opportunity to present their research findings and obtain inputs from learned colleagues, in a less formal venue than larger national and international meetings. This year’s MASMC and morel foray (go morels!) will be hosted April 9-11 by your friends at North Carolina A&T State University. Registration forms and instructions for presenters are now available on the MASMC 20120 web site (www.fungbiotech.com/masmc2010). Registration is due by March 26. Both oral and poster presentations are welcome. For additional information, please contact: Dr. Omon. S. Isikhuemhen (email: omon@ncat.edu), Natural Resources & Environmental Design Department, North Carolina A&T State University, Greensboro, NC 27411. We look forward to seeing you in Greensboro this spring!

It’s mushroom-hunting season and that means dozens of Russians become so hypnotized that they get hopelessly lost in forests.
Mushrooms are low in calories and packed with nutrients. Even the ones shriveling in your fridge right now can form the basis of a healthy meal.
