Abstract Scedosporium and Lomentospora species are environmental moulds that are virulent in immunocompromised hosts and rarely cause bloodstream infection (BSI). Patients with Scedosporium and Lomentospora species BSI were identified by the state public laboratory service in Queensland, Australia, over a 20‐year period.

A One Health approach to overcoming fungal disease and antifungal resistance
A One Health approach to fungal disease integrates environment, animal, and human health to uncover new antifungal therapies and overcome the increasing threat of antifungal resistance. Abstract The global burden of fungal disease poses a substantial threat to human, animal, and environmental health, endangering both human and livestock populations and

Antifungal chemotherapies and immunotherapies for the future
Abstract Human fungal pathogens cause a broad plethora of infections, spanning cutaneous dermatophytoses to invasive infections in immunocompromised hosts. As eukaryotic pathogens are capable of morphotype switching, they present unique challenges both for drug development and the immunological response.

A Bibliometric Review on Candida auris of the First Fifteen Years of Research (2009‐2023)
Introduction. Candida auris is a relatively novel pathogen first described in 2009 in Japan. It has increased its presence worldwide, becoming a public health concern due to its innate resistance to antifungals and outbreak potential. Methods.

The co‐crystal structure of an imidazopyridine ligand (1) complex with Candida albicans Bdf1 BD2, a novel anti‐fungal drug target, reveals that one (W1) among six structural water molecules has been displaced. Molecular dynamic simulations provided insight into the mechanistic role of the displacement process.

Fungal Cell Wall: Emerging Antifungals and Drug Resistance
The cell wall is an essential component in fungal homeostasis. The lack of a covering wall in human cells makes this component an attractive target for antifungal development. The host environment and antifungal stress can lead to cell wall modifications
