Abstract deadline extended to Jan 31 for the EMBO–AS Workshop (Apr 24–27) Evolving together: From genomics to biological interactions. We’re close to capacity (~80% full, aiming for 200), with 70 abstracts already submitted. If you are considering going, submit here: coms.app/gw26-19/

Err technically not books about yeast, but a journal.... @yeast-journal.bsky.social are still around and as the spines of yours suggest, have just celebrated their 40th birthday - but in rather more colourful form! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

This work is the first paper issued from a fantastic collaboration with @litinice.bsky.social , Bertrand Llorente and Marco Cosentino Lagomarsino aiming at revisiting the yeast life cycle onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/.... Hopefully more is coming soon :-)
