I would say this is Trichia decipiens, based on other images online. Let me know if this is not correct. Nice to find some slime mould species in the ''wild'' close to where I live. Might try to take some actual macro images a bit later.
"Hmm, it would surprise me very much if a slime mold could survive inside any part of the human body. Their natural ecological role/niche does to my knowledge (To be fair I have limited experience with different slime molds) not involve other…"
"Wow, very nice Ian!
Having a look at physarum under the TEM is something I'd love to do, but have not been able to convince anyone its worth the TEM time :).
Do you think any part of physarum would be thin enough as is for inspection…"
"I don't fully remember whether I vented the petri dish during the timelapse too many times, generally I try to minimise that for practical reasons. I think the liquid formation at the lid did prevent physarum from heading to that particular…"
"Wow! Hands down the most interesting Physarum video I've seen yet. Amazing how it just zeros in on the mushroom, not even bothering to explore elsewhere until the mushroom is almost completely covered. Did you let it go to the point that the…"

I am interested in cytoskeletal behaviour, but work in more in vitro biophysics. But as more of a hobby id like to do some slide mold work (photography, etc)
