The paper characterizes microbial communities in hospital sinks, showing they are stable, multi-kingdom reservoirs harboring MDROs and shaped by environmental factors.

This study establishes thresholds for azole tolerance and persistence in Aspergillus fumigatus and shows tolerance negatively affects voriconazole treatment efficacy in a Galleria mellonella model.

The paper analyzes genomic data from 250 Aspergillus flavus isolates to show that pathogenicity is strongly linked to population structure, with population D containing most clinical isolates and harboring genes related to zinc ion binding and lipid metabolism.

This study traces the global emergence and evolutionary history of Candida auris using population genomic analyses of isolates from 19 countries, identifying clades, phylogeographic patterns, and antifungal resistance mechanisms.
