Well, that's disturbing. When you wrote that almost 4000 transcripts are up regulated, did you mean to write that they are differentially expressed?

Congratulations on getting this over the finish line. As the Ophiocordyceps ants like to say, "Take it higher!"

This is great. I have been fascinated by this fungus since I first read about it in the mid-1990s in a book about the Museum of Jurassic Technology in Los Angeles. I am currently writing a novel about a society of humans that have been behaviorally suborned by a fungus much like this, and that practice trepanation to relieve pressure on the brain and extend life as the fungus metastasizes inside. Best of luck on your project!

Fantastic. Our four-year-old daughter is obsessed with dinosaurs and we have a membership to the Burke so we bring her often. She'll be thrilled by this project and we'll spread the word.
