Welcome to the IMA

Mycology is the study of all aspects of the fungi. This implies that the IMA should strive to promote mycology in its widest sense. For the coming four year term and until the IMC congress at Edinburgh in 2010, the Executive Committee and the Officers of the IMA will strive to:

• Provide useful information and links on the website, to strengthen mycological integration and collaboration;
• Promote open access of mycological journals and books, and support the flagship journals of our science to be more competitive with those of other sciences;
• Establish online repositories under the auspices and management of the IMA, to which members can contribute and own;
• Establish a promotional platform for all aspects of mycology in the IMA, which would enhance the visibility of our science.
