Dear Colleagues and friends,
I am pleased to invite you to the 4th Balkan Conference on Medical Mycology and Mycotoxicology (Balkan Fungus 2026) to be held October 1-3, 2026 in Cluj-Napoca (Romania).
This event is jointly organized by the Romanian Society of Medical Mycology and Mycotoxicology, Hellenic Society of Medical Mycology, Serbian Society of Medical Mycology, Turkish Society of Medical Mycology and Croatian Microbiological Society (Section for Mycology).
The aim of this biennial meeting is to improve the medical mycology knowledge of specialists from all the Balkan countries and to make their activity in the field more dynamic and visible. The meeting also represents a great opportunity to identify and solve major gaps in diagnostic and therapy, to exchange ideas with researchers and clinicians from other countries, and to develop common networks and research programs.
The host city – Cluj-Napoca, is a vibrant and historic place situated in the heart of Transylvania, Romania. Known for its eclectic mix of Gothic, Baroque, and modern architecture, Cluj-Napoca is a city that effortlessly blends the old with the new. It is a great experience for those who want to see urban Transylvanian life at its best.
