International Symposium

Book for one, two or all three sessions! Tickets are free of charge.

Fungi are crucial for the functioning of all ecosystems on the planet, and are researched on all of earth’s continents. Their importance in seas, oceans and freshwater ecosytems is becoming increasingly apparent too. This webinar has speakers on a range of topics, including mycorrhizal fungi, lichens and pathogens; mycelial networks and yeasts; terrestrial fungi from the poles to the tropics; the significance of fungi for food, health and future uses of fungi. The twelve speakers are based in, or will talk about, fungi from all continents including Antarctica. The webinar is divided into 3 sessions, across the morning, afternoon and evening UK time. This spread of times will allow attendees from all continents to attend some of the talks live, and recordings will be available to view at a later date.
