Sex on Your Scalp

First, researchers grew enough fungus to give dandruff to 10 million people. Next, they sequenced its genes. Then they found out that not only does an icky fungus live on your head and cause dandruff --- but it could be having sex. On your head. Right now.

Having sex on our heads? Wow! What a orgy the fungi must be having!

Makes me look at the problem of dandruff with new-found respect! :)
