We are on a quest to the Peay Lab at Stanford University chasing a 'roots-to-biomes' understanding of plant-microbe symbiosis, along the way we gain a deeper understanding of fungal roles in community assembly and the complexities of mycorrhizal relationships with ecologist and mycophile Dr. Kabir Peay!
We adventure through the Oregon woods, with truffle dogs leading the way, as we tune in to messages of BIPOC representation in natural spaces, practical ways we can uplift those around us and emerging conversations around psychedelics with forager, wildcraft educator and dog expert Elan Hagens!
It's all about reading biological patterns as Dr. Andrew Wilson takes us into the world of fungal systematics, high throughput DNA sequencing and more in his efforts to understand fungal diversity, biogeography and evolutionary history of his favorite mushrooms!
