Although there has over recent years been a marked rise in the incidence of serious fungal infections, many of which are prevalent in developing countries, few facilities exist for diagnosis and research in medical mycology. In most countries, medical mycology is not taught adequately to medical students and consequently there is little awareness of the importance of fungal infections. Model teaching programmes need to be developed. Practical knowledge of mycoses, their diagnosis and treatment and also basic mycology can be disseminated through well-constructed courses and workshops. Formalized training in mycology research also needs to be introduced. To achieve all of this, expertise and additional resources need to be made available. In this regard, ISHAM can and should help.
