Abstract
Norman van Rhijn works in the field of One Health relating to fungal pathogens and antifungal resistance studying the factors that shape the emergence and spread of fungal diseases. In this mSphere of Influence article, they reflect on how the work by M. E. Gorris, K. K. Treseder, C. S. Zender, and J. T. Randerson (GeoHealth 3:308-327, 2019, https://doi.org/10.1029/2019GH0002) made an impact on them by evidencing that environmental change directly impacted the change in habitat of Coccidioides immitis, the fungal pathogen responsible for Valley fever. This work has shaped their approach toward understanding fungal pathogens and environmental change driving antifungal resistance.
Norman van Rhijn在同一个健康领域工作,研究真菌病原体和抗真菌耐药性,研究影响真菌疾病出现和传播的因素。在这篇mSphere of Influence文章中,他们反思了m.e. Gorris、k.k. Treseder、c.s. Zender和j.t. Randerson (GeoHealth 3:308- 327,2019, https://doi.org/10.1029/2019GH0002)的工作如何通过证明环境变化直接影响了导致谷热的真菌病原体球孢子虫(coccidiides immitis)栖息地的变化,对他们产生了影响。这项工作塑造了他们理解真菌病原体和驱动抗真菌耐药性的环境变化的方法。
期刊介绍:
mSphere™ is a multi-disciplinary open-access journal that will focus on rapid publication of fundamental contributions to our understanding of microbiology. Its scope will reflect the immense range of fields within the microbial sciences, creating new opportunities for researchers to share findings that are transforming our understanding of human health and disease, ecosystems, neuroscience, agriculture, energy production, climate change, evolution, biogeochemical cycling, and food and drug production. Submissions will be encouraged of all high-quality work that makes fundamental contributions to our understanding of microbiology. mSphere™ will provide streamlined decisions, while carrying on ASM''s tradition for rigorous peer review.
