Christopher C. Kibbler is Professor of Medical Microbiology at University College London and medical mycology is the focus of his academic interests. He has published more than 200 papers, articles, chapters and books and contributed to a number of international guidelines on the management of fungal disease. He is Past President of the British Society of Medical Mycology (BSMM), Past Chair of the UK Clinical Mycology Network and Programme Director of the UCL/BSMM Masters Programme in Medical Mycology. Richard Barton is a principal clinical scientist and is responsible for running and developing the Mycology Reference Centre in Leeds an NHS mycology diagnostic service provided to health service providers across the UK and beyond. He has published in areas of diagnostic mycology, served on the BSMM executive, and taught at the University of Leeds and for the UCL/BSMM Masters Programme in Medical Mycology. Neil A. R. Gow is s Professor of Molecular Mycology at the MRC Centre for Medical Mycology at the School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition at the Institute of Medical Sciences, University of Aberdeen, Scotland. He is-past- President of the British Mycological Society, the International Society for Human and Animal Mycology (ISHAM) and is current President of the Microbiology Society. He has published extensively on medical and general mycology. Susan Howell is Head of St John's Dermatology Mycology at Viapath. Her mycological focus is on superficial and subcutaneous fungal infections, and she leads a mycology service that serves patients from the St John's Dermatology clinics, local community and beyond. Susan's academic focus is on teaching and training in order to promote mycology and awareness of fungal infections. She has published a number of papers and book chapters, and is a past Executive Committee member and Secretary to the British Society for Medical Mycology. Donna M. MacCallum is a Senior Lecturer and Postgraduate Teaching Lead in the School of Medical Sciences at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland. Her academic research in the MRC Centre for Medical Mycology at the University of Aberdeen focuses on infection models to investigate fungal pathogenicity and antifungal therapies, and has published over 70 research papers, reviews and book chapters. She is the current Treasurer of the International Society for Human and Animal Mycoses (ISHAM), past Treasurer of the British Society for Medical Mycology (BSMM) and has served on the eukaryotic Committee of the Microbiology Society. Rohini J. Manuel is a Consultant Microbiologist and Mycology Lead at the Public Health Laboratory London, National Infection Service, Public Health England, as well as a consulting advisor for the Royal College of Pathologists, and member of RCPath England Regional Council. Her main interests are in invasive fungal diseases affecting the immunocompromised. She is a member of the UK Clinical Mycology Network Steering Group, and of the English Surveillance Programme on Antimicrobial Utilisation and Resistance Antifungal Subgroup. She is training lead at the Public Health Laboratory London, Senior Examiner in Medical Microbiology at the Royal College of Pathologists and sits on the Board of Examiners for the British Society for Medical Mycology / UCL MSc in Medical Mycology. Rohini is one of the organisers for the national Fungal Update meeting at St Bartholomews Hospital, London. She is a key member of the UK Incident Management Team for the newly emerging global pathogen, Candida auris.
