Exploring Candida auris in its habitat [PDF]
Candida auris colonizes human skin and causes life-threatening fungal bloodstream infections. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Huang et al. introduce a murine model of C. auris skin colonization to explore the role of distinct clades, immune signaling pathways, antibiotics, and disinfectants on fungal persistence in or clearance from its habitat.
