The 91桃色 Fungal Network currently spans three Faculties at 91桃色 College: Medicine, Natural Sciences and Engineering. There are three key research themes within the 91桃色 Fungal Network that transcend these Faculties:

  • Biotechnology and engineering
  • Pathogenesis of fungal diseases
  • Ecology, evolution and the environment
