Diversity drives disease by Candida auris
The resilience of the emerging fungal pathogen Candida auris poses a significant challenge to public health. In a recent study examining how this pathogen navigates changing host environments, Tedja et al. show that sensing nutrient availability differences between body sites is key to controlling immune evasion.
