Funded Activity Summary

Invasive fungal infections are a serious and escalating health problem. They cause severe disease with a high death rate and are very costly to the health system. New antifungal drugs with novel properties are needed now because there are problems with current drugs. This project aims to develop potent new antifungal drugs that are effective in many fungal diseases and are well-tolerated.
