Abstract

ABSTRACT The Mycoses Study Group Education and Research Consortium (MSGERC)—a group comprising clinicians, researchers, patients, and industry partners—meets every 2 years to review the most significant challenges facing the clinical mycology community and plan research, education, and advocacy strategies to prevent fungal infections and improve outcomes. Key themes of the 2024 biennial meeting included emergence of antifungal resistance, the effects of climate change on incidence of IFI, recent healthcare‐and community‐associated outbreaks and their management, and the potential benefits of novel approaches, such as innovative study designs, host‐directed diagnostics and therapies, and artificial intelligence in clinical and academic mycology.
