Project Overview:
GAIN is a UK & Ireland fungal meeting initiative on the management of Invasive Fungal Disease (IFD) that is delivered collaboratively by experts in Medical Mycology and the Medical Affairs Team.
GAIN provides an interdisciplinary programme of plenary sessions, debates, case studies and workshops relevant to healthcare professionals (HCPs), researchers and academics working in the UK & Ireland who are involved in the diagnosis and management of IFD.
The challenge
Complexity of Invasive Fungal Disease (IFD):
Managing IFD requires specialised knowledge due to its diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
