Dear Mother Mycelium with Paul Stamets

This week on Semaine, meet Paul Stamets. Mould has saved us once, and could do so again. Paul knows this more than any. The godfather of fungi, his three decades in mycology trace a search that dates back 650 million years (Paul loves to deadpan that fungi are “our ancestors”). Fungi are world-builders, and Paul’s life has been devoted to their architecture.
