After the great success of the Copenhagen TIMM conference in Oct 2013, which attracted more than 900 participants, we expect another highlight in Lisbon in Oct 2015. The executive committee, consisting of Joao Brandao, Carlos Martins, Katrien Lagrou and Paul Verweij, is fully dedicated to developing a conference program which covers all scientific and clinical areas of fungal infection. A meeting you should not miss!

The 2013 impact factors for medical journals have been released. As expected the IF of our official ECMM journal Mycoses increased. The overall number of citations rose by over 10% reflecting the high quality of research published in Mycoses.
We want to express our deep gratitude to our authors!
