In 1975 his family went to the First International Conference on Psilocybin Mushrooms where he met many of the early principals of Psil ocybin research. In the fall of 1977 Paxton ran across an unknown Psilocyb e mushroom on the shores of Astoria Oregon. The story of getting a name fo r a mushroom is quite interesting\, especially if that mushroom is Psiloc ybe azurescens. This is that story\; plus of course a few side stories.\nA bout the Speaker\nPaxon Hoag grew up outside of Astoria Oregon in a small community named Fernhill. His father was in the US Navy\, and was transfer red to Astoria in 1954 and retired in 1958. Encouraged by his parents\, Pa xton was fascinated by mushrooms at an early age. He loved exploring all o f the mushrooms that grew in his neighborhood\; and read everything he cou ld find in the library about fungi. He attended Oregon State University\, but is mostly self taught. He dabbled in agar culture and lab work and fin ally ended up with outdoor cultivation of Psilocybe azurescens.\nMeeting Entry Reminder: All entry and exit for after hours plant society meetings will now go through the Freyer – Newman Center main entrance.

While over 125 species of fungi are known to produce luminescent mushrooms or my celium\, the chemical and genetic basis of the light-producing reaction wa s only recently discovered\, and the reason these fungi glow remains somew hat of a mystery. Come learn about our current understanding of the evolut ion\, ecology and biochemistry of this phenomenon. And yes\, there will be lots of pictures of glowing mushrooms!\n\nBrian Perry is a Professor of Biology at California State University East Bay\, and Director of the HAY Fungarium. He received his Master's Degree from San Francisco State Univer sity under the guidance of Dr. Dennis E. Desjardin\, and his Ph.D. from Ha rvard University where he studied with Dr. Donald H. Pfister. Brian has be en studying fungi since 1995\, and has published over 45 papers in scienti fic journals. In addition to studying the evolution of fungal bioluminesce nce\, he also conducts research on mushrooms and other fungi of Vanuatu\, the assembly and biogeography of island fungal communities\, endophytic fu ngi\, and the systematics of Mycena and allied genera. Brian teaches sev eral mycology courses at Cal State East Bay and the Sierra Nevada Field Ca mpus.\nStreaming:\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/8896485560 1?pwd=R3N2Skg0UWFYYkoyS0dXeGkrRWlFUT09\n\nMeeting ID: 889 6485 5601\nPassc ode: 334787 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cmsweb.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/CM S_Home-CO-Overlay-2.jpg CATEGORIES:Meeting LOCATION:Sturm Auditorium - Denver Botanic Gardens\, 1085 York St\, Denver\ , CO\, 80206\, United States X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=1085 York St\, Denver\, CO\ , 80206\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Sturm Auditorium - Denv er Botanic Gardens:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:86@cmsweb.org DTSTART:20240710T143000Z DTEND:20240710T203000Z DTSTAMP:20240702T032846Z URL:https://cmsweb.org/events/summer-foray-3/ SUMMARY:Summer Foray #3 DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, July 10: CMS members Miyako Boyett\, Jamie Salomon and Mika Kodama will lead this foray.
