Current Topics in Medical Mycology, is intended to summa- rize current research areas in medical mycology for medical mycologists and other scientists who are working in micro- biology and immunology. Topics to be included in each volume will serve as contemporary reviews, summaries of current advancements and future directions, and mecha- nisms to enhance the interdisciplinary use of medically im- portant fungi in understanding pathogenesis, epidemiology, mycotoxins, taxonomy, and other areas where basic, ap- plied, and clinical sciences are used.
