“…Chronic and highly mutilating fungal infections in otherwise healthy-appearing patients have long remained enigmatic. The classical case of a patient with a destructive, finally fatal infection caused by the otherwise harmless plant pathogen Mycocentrospora acerina (Lie-Kian-Joe et al 1957 ) is illustrative. However, it was recently discovered that most patients with such infections are not perfectly healthy, but have one of a gamut of inherited immune disorders (Gross et al 2006 ; Hsu et al 2007 ).…”

Fungi are an understudied resource possessing huge potential for developing products that can greatly improve human well-being. In the current paper, we highlight some important discoveries and developments in applied mycology and interdisciplinary Life Science research. These examples concern recently introduced drugs for the treatment of infections and neurological diseases; application of –OMICS techniques and genetic tools in medical mycology and the regulation of mycotoxin production; as well as some highlights of mushroom cultivaton in Asia. Examples for new diagnostic tools in medical mycology and the exploitation of new candidates for therapeutic drugs, are also given. In addition, two entries illustrating the latest developments in the use of fungi for biodegradation and fungal biomaterial production are provided. Some other areas where there have been and/or will be significant developments are also included. It is our hope that this paper will help realise the importance of fungi as a potential industrial resource and see the next two decades bring forward many new fungal and fungus-derived products.
