UAF is hosting the 79th annual meeting of the Mycological Society of America now through Aug. 5.

The society’s annual meeting is dedicated to advancing the study of fungi of all kinds – mushrooms, molds, truffles, yeasts, lichens, plant pathogens and medically important fungi.

The yearly gathering is an opportunity for scientists, students and individuals with a professional interest in fungi to present research, meet potential collaborators and enjoy an arctic fungi landscape.
