UC Berkeley research has shown that each of the two strains of the fungus, Neurospora crassa, the green-stained strain and the red-stained strain, only fuse with their own kind. Although they may tough each other, they do not become one, unless they are of the same strain. In this video, black arrows point to meetings between two different strains, and the yellow arrows point to the fusing of two like strains. (N. Louise Glass video)

Watch excerpts from a conversation between two time Academy Award-winning director Ang Lee and his longtime writer-producer partner (and Cal alumnus) James Schamus presented by Cal Performances and UC Berkeleys College of Letters & Sciences On the Same Page program. The excerpts focus on The Ice Storm (1997) touching on other films, including Sense and Sensibility (1995) and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) which won Lee his first Academy Award and Schamus, who co-wrote and executive produced the film, earned Academy Award nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Original Song. In 2006, the collaboration produced the acclaimed Brokeback Mountain. The conversation is moderated by UC Berkeley professor Jeffrey Knapp. http://calperfs.berkeley.edu/
