Michael Bradshaw is an Assistant Professor and Director of the Larry F. Grand Mycological Herbarium at North Carolina State University. He completed a postdoc with Dr. Donald Pfister at Harvard from 2021-2023. His research focuses on the taxonomy, evolution, and population genetics of plant pathogens—particularly powdery mildews—using historical herbarium specimens to study pathogen spread and diversity. In this presentation, Dr. Bradshaw will discuss the challenges and opportunities of running a small mycological herbarium in the modern age, including strategies for building collections and using specimens for research.
