The 4th Mycology Tyrol Symposium will continue to promote the interdisciplinary scientific exchange of
prominent microbial topics including Molecular Fungal Cell Biology, Fungal Physiology, Environmental Mycology, Fungal Systematics, Fungal Secondary Metabolites, Microbial Resource Management and Clinical Mycology. Researchers from the University of Innsbruck and Medical University of Innsbruck will join forces to discuss the latest advancements and novel trends in their fields.
This time, focus will be on Ph.D. students and postdoctoral researchers to present their projects and
future plans to the community. A poster session and concurrent open mixer will provide time for extensive networking and for finding collaboration opportunities. This one-day symposium is free of charge and after registration open to everyone with a special interest in basic and applied mycological research.
We wish all attendees a productive and enjoyable day!
The symposium provides a comprehensive overview of basic and applied research in mycology, including:
Molecular Mycology & Mycoparasitism
Environmental Mycology & Mycological Systematics
Fungal Physiology & Overflow Metabolism
Phytomyxid Parasite - Host Interactions
Biocontrol with Entomopathogenic Fungi
Photoanimicrobials from Fungi
Anaerobic Fungi
Antifungal Proteins & Drug Targets
Fungal Siderophores & Pathogenicity
Histone Deacetylases: Chromatin & Epigenetics
Chromatin-linked Mechanisms of Gene Control
Galleria mellonella Infection Model
Antifungal Resistance & Fungal Diagnostics
Immunology of Fungal Infections
The program will also be featuring two keynote speakers:
Keynote Update: The scheduled keynote talk by Ilse Jacobsen has been cancelled. In its place we are pleased to announce a talk by Martin Kirchmair.
