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.
