The Aspergillus terreus working group consists of a diverse group of mycologists, clinicians and molecular biologists. This unique consortium will work towards the common goal of augmenting existing knowledge on the biology, genetic diversity, population dynamics, clinical epidemiology, virulence and antifungal susceptibilities of the emerging fungal pathogen A. terreus. The working group will sustain a communication network through which the members can exchange research ideas and thoughts freely and will also function as a portal for the group to meet and exchange research data.
We performed studies on new species and the manuscript is under construction. We performed genomic studies an amphotericin B resistant and amphotericin B susceptible strains. We started with proteomic studies.
Planned a meeting at ISHAM 2025 – proposal is submitted
