Although there has over recent years been a marked rise in the incidence of serious fungal infections, many of which are prevalent in developing countries, few facilities exist for diagnosis and research in medical mycology. In most countries, medical mycology is not taught adequately to medical students and consequently there is little awareness of the importance of fungal infections. Model teaching programmes need to be developed. Practical knowledge of mycoses, their diagnosis and treatment and also basic mycology can be disseminated through well-constructed courses and workshops. Formalized training in mycology research also needs to be introduced. To achieve all of this, expertise and additional resources need to be made available. In this regard, ISHAM can and should help.
尽管近年来严重真菌感染的发病率显著上升，其中许多在发展中国家很普遍，但医学真菌学的诊断和研究设施却很少。在大多数国家，医学生没有得到足够的医学真菌学教学，因此对真菌感染的重要性几乎没有认识。需要制定示范教学计划。可以通过精心构建的课程和研讨会来传播关于真菌病、其诊断和治疗以及基础真菌学的实践知识。还需要引入真菌学研究的正规培训。为了实现所有这些目标，需要提供专业知识和额外资源。在这方面，国际人类与动物真菌学会能够而且应该提供帮助。
