clinical microbiology? Although muchhas changed for the better, mycology isstill a minor player in infectious dis-eases in Europe. Bacteriology and vi-rology are dominating the scene, also inmedia attention for example with re-gard to the avian flu. Although all of usknow that there are far more casualtiesdue to invasive fungal infections thanto any of the sexy new diseases, mycol-ogy is hampered with much less publicnotice. How can we change this for thebetter? The German Society for Mycol-ogy already had a tradition of invitingthe press for an update in fungal infec-tions during their yearly meeting. Sucha press conference was also arrangedduring the last TIMM in Berlin. Jour-nalists appeared to be very interestedin the field of mycology especially re-garding the resistance development offungi against existing drugs and the in-troduction of new generations of anti-fungals. But also the presentations ofnew findings at this meeting on the in-troduction of new emerging fungal in-fections into Europe such as Crypto-coccus gattii from Vancouver Islandand rare zygomycetes after the repatri-ation of European victims of theTsunami disaster attracted attention.
