The Association of Fungal Biologists (AFB) is a global scientific body dedicated to advancing mycology through research, collaboration, and knowledge dissemination. Our mission is to bring together mycologists from various disciplines to explore the vast potential of fungi in biotechnology, ecology, pathology, and other allied sciences.

With over 275 members, including seasoned professionals, budding researchers, and students, AFB provides a platform for sharing knowledge and fostering scientific innovations in fungal biology. While our roots are in the Indian subcontinent, we actively engage with international mycologists, promoting cross-border research collaborations.

Join us in our endeavour to explore, understand, and harness the power of fungi for human welfare!
